Description: Over In San Diego at Taylor Guitars HQ, Meg sits down with the man behind some of Taylor's most iconic guitars, Andy Powers! We join him in his wonderful workshop at the Taylor factory to talk in-depth about his history with the Taylor Guitars brand, how he got into building and designing acoustic guitars, how he has innovated and pushed the classic design of an acoustic guitar into the 21st century with features such as Taylors V-Class bracing, and how the new 'American Dream' series guitars were inspired by the COVID-19 Pandemic as an "Essentials Only" guitar! - Also how the Taylor 'Urban Ash' guitars came to life by using wood from trees you'll find in the centre of city!
