Taylor Guitars
Founded in 1974 and built in El Cajon, California, Taylor grew into one of the largest names in American acoustics on a reputation for precision and quiet innovation. The Atlas carries only its highest end — where that craft turns bespoke: the Presentation Series, the ultra-limited Builder's Reserve and Custom Catch runs, and one-off Custom builds. You won't find standard number-series Taylors or Builder's Edition models here.
Empire Music
Empire Music is a Pittsburgh guitar shop founded in 2002, grown from an 800-square-foot storefront into a 7,000-square-foot destination serving players from beginner to advanced. Alongside the retail floor it runs the Empire School of Music, a busy lesson program with a staff of instructors covering guitar, bass, piano, drums, and more. For boutique acoustic shoppers, the draw is custom-shop depth: Empire is a Martin Custom Shop dealer carrying one of the larger high-end Martin selections in the Atlas — recent stock has run from the mid-four figures well into five figures — alongside a Taylor custom inventory and a hand-selected NAMM Collection of show instruments chosen by the makers themselves. A full-service shop with a serious custom-shop floor, it's the natural in-person stop for high-end Martin and Taylor shopping in western Pennsylvania.
