Baby Taylor acoustic

I know zip about guitar tech and this may be from left field but I'll throw it out for you gear heads. Last night and the night before at the Coach House Shawn Taylor opened for Joe. Put on a great acoustic show but what I want to contribute is he picked up a very small guitar, joked about what we must have been thinking and then produced a huge sound from it. Last night he embellished the story by saying he bought it to use on his boat when he was composing. He added a pickup to see what it would do and the result was amazing, especially the bass response. Cheers, Rick
