The mahogany neck, attached to the body at the twelfth fret, features an ebony fingerboard embellished with ornate inlays of imitation mother-of-pearl. A rounded lower cutout of the body (Venetian) makes it easier to reach the higher positions of the fingerboard. The stylish look of the instrument is accentuated by the Shaded Edge Burst colour finish of the soundboard, the company's Satin Black tuning pegs, black body and fingerboard binding, ebony veneer on the headstock decorated with the company's imitation mother-of-pearl logo and a practical black pickguard.
The guitar is equipped with high-quality company electronics. The Taylor Expression System 2 uses three specially designed independent piezo pickups located behind the fingerboard. Unlike conventional pickups, they do not sense the up and down movement of the board, but the natural back and forth vibration of the fingerboard. This makes the sound much more natural, colourful and pleasing, and more responsive to the dynamics of your playing. At the same time, the new preamp makes the signal 25% stronger. Of course, feedback is eliminated and you can adjust the volume, bass and treble.
The instrument comes in a luxurious Taylor case.
