James Taylor From "Shed A Little Light" AG Jul/Aug 1992 (Jeffrey Pepper Rodgers):
James Taylor plays three guitars by James Olson.
Two have an SJ body shape, one with a cutaway, one without....
The third is a dreadnought.... He also has a reliable,
good-sounding Yamaha and three sizes of guitars by Martin Whitebook....
Taylor's Yamaha has Yamaha electronics for amplification; the Olsons have L. R. Baggs pickups.
Taylor does not mike his guitar on stage.
He runs the pickup output through a Pendulum preamp,
and he says that the preamp's notch filter helps him get the best results from the piezo pickup;
he can zero in on and cut the worst-sounding parts of the midrange, then add "crispies" and a little bit of bass.
PUは、L.R. Baggs LB-6 pickupが搭載されているとのこと。
ギター弦は、John Pearseのカスタムセット "slightly light" stringsを使用。
