Taylor - Gold Label 517e + Etui

The Grand Pacific format of the Taylor Gold Label 517e develops large, supple basses that easily fill a room without muddying the chords.
Whether you play softly with your fingers or more firmly with a pick, the response remains stable and musical.

The torrefied Sitka spruce top generates a clean attack and a mature warmth reminiscent of long-playing guitars in many acoustic styles. On the Gold Label 517e, this lively response favours broad strumming, dense folk accompaniment and clear melodic lines for expressive acoustic guitar and modern playing.

The satin-finish neo-tropical mahogany neck retains a fast feel that supports frequent movement across the entire neck. This construction facilitates precise open barre chords and long, regular rhythm parts for modern acoustic guitar.

An internal V Class fan bracing increases overall volume, clear sustain and note consistency across the entire fretboard of the modern acoustic guitar.
You'll hear wide chords that remain legible even in extended arrangements or multitrack recording with dynamic folk guitar and long-lasting, stable, accurate response.

The Action Control Neck system uses a long pin to reinforce the contact between neck and body for a wider bass response. Precise string height adjustment will remain possible over the years for stable acoustic guitar and long-lasting comfortable playing.
