je00143 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I was just wondering about how many Heritage guitars are made annually. My interest was particularly piqued because of two items: one, I saw how acoustic guitars were made (in a hurry, with lasers and stuff) on a a Science Channel program. And two, I just saw a Taylor Guitsrs magazine, where they said they were currently turning out 50 Baby Taylors A DAY!! Holy guacamole! And I can’t imagine how many Gibbers and Fenders are cranked out in a day, much less a year…... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredZepp Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Just thinking about the numbers really puts things in perspective... It really is a custom shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
