Taylor 517e Gold Label Acoustic Guitar

Introduce the stunning Taylor 517e Gold Top Acoustic-Electric Guitar from Taylor's coveted Gold Label Collection. This is more than just a new guitar; it's a meticulously crafted instrument designed to deliver the rich, old-school soul of a seasoned dreadnought with all the benefits of modern Taylor innovation.

A New Chapter in Grand Pacific Tone

The 517e Gold Top is built on the foundation of Taylor's acclaimed Grand Pacific body shape, a round-shoulder dreadnought engineered for warmth and a powerful low-end. The new Gold Label series takes this a step further with a slightly deeper body depth, increasing the guitar's "air volume" for enhanced resonance and a more commanding, resonant voice that fills the room.

Key Features for the Modern Player:

• Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top: The specially roasted Sitka spruce top has undergone a thermal aging process, giving the guitar a sweet, open, and responsive sound right out of the case. It feels and sounds like a vintage guitar that's been played for decades.

   

• Solid Tropical Mahogany Body: Paired with a mahogany back and sides, the 517e Gold Top offers a dry, focused, and fundamental-rich tone with clear, punchy mids. It's the perfect choice for players who want a direct and articulate voice for blues, roots, and Americana music.

   

• V-Class Bracing: Taylor’s revolutionary V-Class bracing delivers incredible volume, sustain, and near-perfect intonation across the fretboard. It's the engine behind the guitar's superior performance and a hallmark of Taylor's acoustic engineering.

   

• Action Control Neck: This new neck design features a deep-set long-tenon joint, creating a more stable and resonant connection to the body. It not only enhances the guitar's low-end response and sustain but also allows for effortless action adjustments, making it incredibly easy to dial in your perfect setup.

   
• Includes LR Baggs Element VTC pickup and deluxe hardshell case
