Taylor 417e-R Grand Pacific Tobacco Sunburst

What we say:

At A Glance:

As part of their 400 series range, the Taylor 417e-R in Tobacco Sunburst takes quality and sound to a new level with the included V-Class bracing. The Grand Pacific body size is a wonderful modern take on the classic dreadnought shape that refines it's sound. The highly regarded ES2 pickup system takes care of the plug and play versatility. One thing that sets this particular model apart is the gorgeous rosewood back and sides, something not often found on a model like this. A cutaway makes it very player-friendly and suitable for a number of different styles.

Features We Love:

Quality Woods

The Indian rosewood back and sides are certainly a stand-out feature on this guitar. You know you are onto a winner when Mr Taylor himself classes it as one of the greatest tonewoods to use. While it gives a traditional look it also sounds rich and works incredibly well with the Sitka spruce top.

Grand Pacific Body Size

With rounded shoulders this modern take on the dreadnought size is designed to offer a warm, rich, tone that is uniquely Taylor. Utilising the V-class bracing that Taylor use on many of their great sounding guitars this guitar has a foundation of stability and refined tones. Brought together with this new shape, notes have a broader, rounder tone with a powerful low end response that doesn't get muddy. Altogether this shape builds on the already famous dreadnought feel and sound by adding a versatility to its sound that can cover many musical styles and playing styles.

Expression System 2

This is widely recognised as one of the greatest acoustic pickup systems available. It translates every ounce of tone, detail and dynamic from your fingertips, strings and guitar wood. This gives the audience an accurate and fully realistic translation of your performance.
