Taylor Builder's edition 717e WHB
Product information "Taylor Builder's edition 717e WHB"
A Wild Honey Burst top and shimmering finish enhance the aesthetic appeal of this Builder's Edition Grand Pacific, which builds on a long tradition of rosewood / spruce dreadnoughts but breaks new ground with an all-new Taylor sound. The round-shouldered dreadnought shape with Taylor's award-winning V-Class bracing creates a warm, seasoned acoustic tone where individual notes overlap and blend seamlessly, while the low-end power common to dreadnoughts adds clarity here. Along with the harmonic complexity of rosewood and the played sound of the torrefied spruce top, players can expect a rich, luxurious tonal character from top to bottom.
