This guitar is gig-ready with an built-in Fishman pick-up. The guitar sounds great acoustically and when it's plugged in too. This beauty blends the woody sound of the Sitka Spruce top and Ovangkol back that is well seasoned with the passing time. Though it has moderate fret wear and a few dings and scratches it is in good condition and is ready to enjoy with no worries and is a great value for an all solid wood, American made guitar! It comes with it's original hard shell case.
This is one beautiful GS featuring a set of highly figured 3-piece Ovankol back with a mini-wedge and an Engelmann Spruce top. It is in excellent condition just having been reconditioned by luthier Pat DiBurro with a brand new top from Taylor and has received a neck reset, fret dressing and full set-up. It also is gig-ready with an updated Taylor ES1.3 pick-up. The short scale, slim-carve neck with a 1 11/16th” nut makes the guitar super-comfortable to play and the sharp Florentine cutaway give you easy access to upper frets. Green-heart Abalone trim and gold hardware complete the appearance of this elegant instrument. With its original hard shell case in very good condition.
This Grand Pacific model is the first of our round-shoulder dreadnoughts to feature back and sides of solid ovangkol, an African tonewood that shares rosewood’s warmth and brilliance with additional presence in the midrange. Topped with solid spruce, the AD17 serves up a blend of sparkle and clean low-end power, enhanced by V-Class bracing for greater volume, longer sustain, and a more in-tune sound. That seasoned, vintage-hued tone is reflected in this model’s strikingly classic look, with a natural top and a deep Urban Sienna color treatment for the ovangkol back and sides. Minimally decorated but finely crafted, the AD17 also features chamfered body edges, stained spruce edge trim, a three-ring rosette in Hawaiian koa, and a faux tortoiseshell pickguard. The 2.0 mil-thick matte body finish minimizes damping for unfettered resonance. It ships in a Taylor AeroCase.
