Born and built in Oklahoma, OK, Ben Liggett of Liggett Guitars has married traditional guitar craftsmanship with modern technique and functionality in mind, placing him as one of the next up & coming American-made boutique guitar builders.
This Liggett Guitars Taurus (#3) was crafted with a Sitka Spruce chambered body and Sitka Spruce, carbon reinforced neck. Ebony makes up the fingerboard and headstock overlay, with Taurus engraved dots. The Metallic Silver over Japanese Block Print is finished in Nitro and is heavily relic'ed.
The Liggett Taurus combines a compact 24-5/8" scale with a responsive tremolo system, facilitating effortless fretting and expressive string bending techniques. Its engineering incorporates minimal headstock angle with direct string alignment, ensuring remarkable tuning retention during aggressive vibrato manipulation. Ergonomically contoured body cutaways provide superior playing comfort regardless of positioning, making it an instrument optimized for technical performance.
