The Taylor 117e Grand Pacific - Natural brings Taylor's famous playability and tone to a whole new group of players. It's the first time their Grand Pacific round-shoulder dreadnought body has shown up in the 100 Series, making it a great pick for beginners who want a head start with a quality instrument, or gigging musicians looking for a dependable workhorse. With its warm, broken-in sound right out of the box thanks to a torrefied spruce top, the 117e feels inspired by vintage acoustics but stays modern and reliable.
Taylor built this one with layered sapele back and sides, plus their solid torrefied spruce top, so you're getting a focused, rich tone that projects clearly and has that satisfying low-end thump you want from a dreadnought. Their C-Class bracing design really brings out the sustain and bass response without muddying up your sound. Plugged in, Taylor's ES2 electronics make it just as ready for the stage as it is for the couch, giving you a natural, dynamic tone in any setting.
The neck is slim and super comfortable, making it easy for players of all levels to dig in and play longer without fatigue. It's also built with the kind of reliability you can trust; solid tuning stability, rugged build quality, and a design that fits into any setup without a hitch. We're confident this is one of the best values out there if you're after a full, warm acoustic tone with easy playability right out of the gate.
