Taylor 117E Grand Pacific Acoustic Electric Torrefied Spruce Sapele - 117E

OVERVIEW

Experience the rich, neo-vintage tone of the 117e, the first guitar in Taylor's 100 Series to feature the iconic Grand Pacific round-shoulder dreadnought body shape.

With a layered sapele back and sides and a solid torrefied spruce top, this acoustic-electric offers a warm, powerful sound with clear projection and impressive low-end presence. The spruce top undergoes a special roasting process, creating a mature and sweet tone, while the C-Class interior bracing increases volume, sustain, and bass presence.

Together with the slim and comfortable neck and ES2 electronics, the 117e provides an exceptional playing experience for musicians of all levels.
