Description
What makes this guitar special: When you think of Taylor quality, you think of quality appointments like the ones featured on this beauty. Tortoise binding graces the outline of the entire body and fingerboard, which is delicately balanced against the pearl diamond fingerboard inlays and variegated pearl rosette. This piece is in phenomenal condition for a used piece, with no serious wear. The previous owner even went to the trouble of having a wooden armrest installed on the lower bout, and a wooden pickguard mounted on top of the stock tortoise guard. Both of these add comfort, stability, and an added layer of premium quality to this already wonderfully adorned instrument. It has been professionally setup and inspected by our expert in-house luthier, and will arrive ready to play out of the original factory hard shell case.
Cosmetic condition: Excellent shape, with some light surface scratches and marks from handling throughout the instrument. Added wooden arm rest and pickguard are glued to the top. There is some visible fretwear in the first position, and some mild pickwear on the top as well. Cosmetically, this one is an 8.5/10.
Body: Tortoise bound mahogany back and sides with solid spruce top in natural finish with ivoroid purfling. Multi-ring variegated pearl rosette, ebony bridge with pearl inlaid ebony bridge pins, and added wooden pickguard and arm rest.
Weight: 4 lb, 11.4 oz
Neck: C-shaped mahogany neck with white side dots and pearl diamond inlays. Indian rosewood headstock overlay with pearl Taylor logo.

Neck is straight and plays beautifully up and down the length of the instrument.
