Circa 74 is an all-new acoustic and vocal amplifier developed by the design team at Taylor Guitars, blending signature Taylor woodworking, stylish aesthetics, rich sound and broad practical utility into one essential musical tool. Outfitted with a ten-inch full-range speaker fueled by 150 watts of power, the Circa 74 amp delivers warm, beautifully textured sound to fill virtually any space, from bedrooms and living rooms to cafés and small performance venues.
Dual 1/4-inch and XLR inputs for two independent channels enable musicians to amplify guitar and vocals simultaneously, with each channel featuring intuitive three-band EQ and reverb controls. Bluetooth connectivity makes it easy to use the Circa 74 as a speaker for recorded music, while XLR and 1/4-inch line and 1/8-inch headphone outputs allow you to run your sound through PA systems and mixers. It all comes together in a beautifully crafted mahogany cabinet paired with a matching stand to elevate your sound and show off the amp's striking midcentury vibe.
What’s it sound like when a master craftsman, an electronics engineer and a professional guitarist get together? Harmonious.
If you know Bob Taylor, you know he likes refined woodworking and pleasing sound. So when he decided to design an acoustic amplifier from a stockpile of tonewoods not quite right for guitars, he knew just who to call. Soon after, pro player Terry Myers, electronics guru Tyler Robertson and woodworking wizard David Judd were in Bob’s workshop and ideas were flying around as much as the sawdust. The outcome was that simple: "It's gorgeous. It sounds great. It's super convenient. It's perfect for a working musician like myself." Dani Bell, singer and songwriter.
