Doyle Dykes Signature Model
For decades, fingerstyle virtuoso Doyle Dykes has inspired audiences with his masterful touch and musical imagination. This refreshed Doyle Dykes Signature Model, part of our Legacy Collection, revives the distinctive design originally crafted to Doyle’s personal playing specifications. The guitar features a thinner-bodied Grand Auditorium with a Florentine cutaway, pairing figured maple back and sides with a Sitka spruce top for a blend of clarity and projection. Its slim-carve hard rock maple neck and 24-7/8-inch scale length deliver a fast, comfortable feel that makes intricate fingerstyle passages effortless. Visually, the model captures Doyle’s vibrant personality and honors his longtime mentor and friend, Chet Atkins. A transparent orange gloss finish highlights the body and neck, accented by grained ivoroid binding (body, fretboard, headstock, and soundhole), green abalone top trim and rosette with black/cream purfling, and offset mother-of-pearl “Chet”-style thumbnail inlays. A rose motif headstock inlay in mother-of-pearl and green abalone, along with ebony bridge pins with abalone dots, completes the striking aesthetic. Updated for today’s player, this edition includes Taylor’s new Claria System electronics, featuring onboard Volume, Mid-Contour and Tone controls for easy, natural amplified sound in any setting.

We are a Guitar Boutique where musicians come to hang out whilst shopping from our stock of exquisite high end acoustic and electric guitars.
Miami Guitars is run by a guitar enthusiast and a professional guitar player. Our main interest consists of bringing back to the community the good old fashion way of buying instruments: from a place that feels more like a musician’s home and not a corporation eager just to sell you stuff. Our intention is not to compete with the major chains, instead we want to create alliances with all our local musicians and promote the guitar as an activity that is both artistic and spiritual, a place where local bands can promote their shows, make connections, try and purchase amazing instruments and just be themselves.
We offer you a wide variety of instruments from the greatest guitars makers of our time. We want you to get the guitar of your dreams from us and we know that you’ve worked hard to get it, here you are treated with respect and consideration from fellow musicians who share your same dreams, talk your talk and walk your walk.
Our mission is to provide the best guitar shopping experience in an ambiance of ease and comfort without vexing sales pitch and pushing. Upon their request we impart our customers with all the information pertinent to the product of their interest in order for them to make an educated decision, one that they won’t regret later.
