A Taylor Swift signature guitar has been a long time coming. However, in true T-Swift fashion, the global star has subverted expectations by launching a custom Epiphone acoustic guitar on her official merchandise store \u2013 and they’re already sold out.<\/p>\n

The model she chose? An Epiphone DR-100, equipped with finishes that nod to her various albums \u2013 or Eras \u2013 representing Fearless (Taylor’s Version)<\/em>, Speak Now (Taylor’s Version)<\/em>, Red (Taylor’s Version)<\/em>, 1989 (Taylor’s Version)<\/em>, Lover<\/em>, Folklore<\/em>, Evermore<\/em>, Midnights<\/em>, and The Tortured Poets Department.<\/em><\/p>\n

The 25.5″ scale budget guitar features a mahogany body, back, and sides, with a spruce top. It has the same exact specs as Epiphone’s standard DR-100 \u2013 coming fitted with a rosewood fingerboard with pearloid inlays, a SlimTaper neck shape for enhanced playability, and Epiphone Premium Tuners. Each guitar also comes with a unique serial number printed on the back of the headstock.<\/p>\n

The regular DR-100, it should be noted, is an entry-level Epiphone acoustic, available online for $169. Swift’s own custom designs clock in at $399, but their limited availability could lead to an increased value over time.<\/p>\n

As noted in Guitar World\u2019s interview with Gibson\u2019s Vice President of Product, Mat Koehler, \u201cTaylor favors a fairly unique Gibson model \u2013 a J-180 acoustic with a long scale length.\u201d However, her choice to go for an Epiphone DR-100 \u2013 a more budget-friendly model \u2013 makes these Eras guitars more accessible to fans.<\/p>\n

Swift’s move counters the knock-off models \u2013 such as the one memorably smashed by an auction winner in Texas \u2013 that have recently been appearing for sale, claiming to be Swift’s or signed by Swift.<\/p>\n
