Taylor American Dream AD12e - tobacco sunburst

The TAYLOR American Dream AD12e Tobacco Sunburst acoustic/electric guitar features a comfortable Grand Concert body shape with a solid Sitka spruce top braced with Taylor's V-Class bracing that optimizes the response of an acoustic guitar by boosting volume and sustain, and resolving the intonation issues that have long plagued acoustic guitars.
Other notable appointments include a solid walnut back and sides, easy-playing mahogany neck, chamfered body edges, eucalyptus fingerboard and bridge, a super thin matte finish, tortoise pickguard, Taylor's ES2 Electronic System and a Taylor AeroCase for maximum protection and portability.

A Sitka spruce top blends the right amount of stiffness and elasticity to create a broad, dynamic range with crisp articulation.
Walnut produces a clear, woody voice with a splash of top-end sparkle and a bit more tonal support in the lower register. The combination of the Sitka and walnut creates a tone that will ring out with a pleasing weight behind it.
The high density and hardness of Eucalyptus tonewood enhances the clarity of each note. It also feels wonderful underneath the finger.
If Taylor choosed this alternative for its regular Ebony fingerboards, we can take their word for it.

Slightly smaller that the Grand Auditorium body shape, this Grand Concert yields controlled overtones and its compactness blends with the slightly condensed fret spacing of the 24-7/8" scale length. With the bridge's position near the center of the lower bout, Taylor's Grand Concert guitars are easy to play and have a surprising amount of tonal power and midrange warmth.

It ships with built-in ES2 electronics in a Taylor AeroCase.
