New 300 Series Taylor Guitars
The all-solid Taylor experience begins with the updated 300 Series®. Crisp, black binding flanks the satin-finish sapele back and sides and glossy Sitka spruce top, and then continues up the fretboard. The 300 Series is truly the performer’s workhorse, combining technology and craftsmanship with understated style.
Features: Top: Sitka Spruce. Back/Sides: Sapele. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New 400 Series Taylor Guitars
Ovangkol lends exotic flare to the 400 Series®, with a tone many find similar to Indian rosewood. Follow the fluid lines of the Venetian cutaway, dramatically outlined with contrasting white binding. The Expression System pickup completes the package on this popular acoustic/electric.
Features: Top: Sitka Spruce. Back/Sides: Ovangkol. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New 500 Series Taylor Guitars
With exceptionally warm and articulate tones, tropical mahogany has established itself among the tonewood elite. Many consider these striking all glossy guitars the ultimate fingerpickers—especially the cedar-topped 514ce. Plugged in, they’ll sing out the subtlety of your style loud and clear.
Features: Top: Engelmann Spruce or Western Red Cedar (514ce). Back/Sides: Tropical Mahogany. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New 600 Series Taylor Guitars
A signature quality of Big Leaf maple — besides its crisp, bright tone — is its ability to cut through on stage. As a result, you’ll find many 600 Series® guitars in live performance situations, easily able to hold their own with the rest of the band. The 600 Series is a visual standout, too: Its jaw-dropping maple figure is available in a selection of natural, color and sunburst finishes.
Features: Top: Sitka Spruce. Back/Sides: Big Leaf Maple. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New 700 series Taylor Guitars
For many guitar players, Indian rosewood is what it’s all about. We offer this classic tonewood in three premium classes, starting with the 700 Series®. Elegant rosewood binding, mother-of-pearl dot inlays, abalone rosette, Venetian cutaway, and the Expression System pickup make this Taylor series a timeless statement of tone and taste.
Features: Top: Engelmann or Western Red Cedar (714ce). Back/Sides: Indian Rosewood. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New 800 series Taylor Guitars
Our second offering in Indian rosewood, the 800 Series® traces its roots to the earliest Taylors. Bob’s latest design changes speak of traditional lutherie in the form of hand-set, figured maple binding. It’s a gorgeous upgrade that complements the beautiful hues of rosewood and sparkling inlay work. For many, the 800 Series is a true Taylor icon.
Features: Top: Sitka Spruce. Back/Sides: Indian Rosewood. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New 900 series Taylor Guitars
Our rarest, high-grade Indian rosewood is reserved for our 900 Series®. In fact, every material used on these guitars is premium quality, from the hand-selected Sitka spruce tops to the iridescent pieces of abalone used for the inlay work to the elegant Gotoh tuners. The 900 Series guitars are true Taylor masterworks.
Features: Top: Sitka Spruce. Back/Sides: Indian Rosewood. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
New DDSM Taylor Guitars
Doyle Dykes is a guitar player with few equals. His fingers define virtuosity, moving with almost unreal speed and complexity. The DDSM is his guitar. A maple masterpiece, each DDSM is a work of art that’s built for performance. Adorned with the hand-inlaid “Rose for Heidi,” the DDSM features a top edged in abalone and a beautiful demonstration of lutherie in the form of a Florentine cutaway. Choose the Expression System or L.R. Baggs Doyle Dykes pickup standard.
New 12-String Series Taylor Guitars
Taylor 12-strings deliver the same easy-to-hold, stay-in-tune playability as their six-string siblings. With their comfortable necks, Taylor 12-strings are ideal for the mainly six-string guitarist as well as the true 12-string enthusiast. All Taylor acoustic/electric 12-strings feature the Taylor Expression System and a Venetian cutaway.
