Taylor Guitars Responds to "United Breaks Guitars"

Bob Taylor lends his support to Dave Carroll and guitar players everywhere.

Taylor has had an artist relationship with Dave for several years now. In 2006, our owners magazine, Wood&Steel, reviewed Daves CD, Sunday Morning. As weve had an ongoing relationship, we have made the offer to replace and/or further repair his damaged 710ce.


As a Taylor artist, weve offered Dave our support, a choice of a new guitar and to re-repair the damaged 710ce. Dave and his bandmate Julian made the trip to the Taylor factory in July and have met many of our staff. Well also be running a story on Daves experiences in the fall issue of Wood&Steel.

In other words, don't fret about it and you'll win by a neck.

Just keep in mind Jason that those are union folks.

They probably didn't get their promotion by their ability or work ethic. The union will take care of them , but the cello owner is SOL.

Goes to show never travel with your guitar on a passenger plane. Pack it, insure it and ship it to your destination. Asking a passenger airline to carefully transport your property is like asking a baker to fix your car—thats not their primary business. Go with a company (FedEx, UPS, etc. . .) whose specializes in moving property NOT people. :-)

And not only Taylors...other guitars too... What an awesome company... I play a couple beloved Ibanez 7-strings and a Raines classical 7-string, and if the airlines ever mauled my instruments, I would definitely look this gentleman up ASAP and seek his help!

That's it! My next stringbox will be a Taylor!
