The Academy Series delivers instruments that don't lack the quality craftsmanship and great sound that Taylor is known for, but are designed to be accessible to the widest possible range of players. The philosophy behind the production of these guitars is simple - leave out everything that doesn't directly affect the sound. The instruments are made very sparingly, without extra decorative elements that add to the price. The quality associated with the Taylor brand is now something everyone can afford.
The classical guitars in this series have a solid Lutz spruce top and a body made of laminated Sapele. At first glance, the Armrest, a beveled area on the top of the body where it touches the arm, catches the eye. This design feature makes playing very comfortable and is only found as standard on more expensive models.
The Sapele neck is fitted with an ebony fingerboard with seventeen frets. Nylon strings with lower tension are gentler on the fingers, making the guitar suitable for beginners.
In the case of guitars with the 12 marking, it is a Grand Concert body type, whose sound is particularly suitable for strumming and fingerstyle playing.
