The Sitka spruce soundboard features a gloss lacquer finish and Antique Blonde finish. The back and sides are made of A-grade maple veneer. The guitar's sound is elevated to a higher level by the patented V-Class ribbing, which enhances the guitar's performance in three aspects - increasing the instrument's volume, extending sustain and improving intonation.
An ebony fingerboard is glued to the maple neck. Stable tuning is ensured by attaching the strings through the Black TusQ zero fret in the company's mechanics (Taylor Polished Bronze) and through the micarta saddle fret in the ebony fingerboard. The guitar's luxurious workmanship is accentuated by the body cutout with a handy soundport, the maple body binding (Pale Maple), decorative position markers on the fingerboard and rosette composed of Hawaiian koa and maple, and the pegs for the abalone pearl-dotted bone fingerboard.
The guitar is equipped with the company's high-quality Expression System 2 electronics and built-in Taylorsense monitoring system that will alert you in the event of a problem (humidity, temperature, battery level) via the Taylor Guitars App (iOS) on your phone. The Taylor Expression System 2 uses three specially designed independent piezo pickups located behind the fingerboard. Unlike conventional pickups, they don't 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 deluxe carrying case.
