Taylor 50th Anniversary 217e-SB Plus - tobacco sunburst

Model commemorating the year Taylor was founded.
The TAYLOR 50th Anniversary 217e-SB Plus is a Grand Pacific-style electro-acoustic steel-string acoustic guitar featuring a solid torrefied Sitka Spruce top, a laminated Indian Rosewood back and side duo, an Ebony fingerboard and an Expression System ES2 preamp. Enhanced by aesthetic features specific to the 50th Anniversary range, the 217e-SB Plus is a must-have option.

In addition to giving the wood an attractive patina, the torrefaction process improves the instrument's tuning stability, sustain, clarity and resonance. The Grand Pacific template is a reinterpretation of the popular Dreadnought Round Shoulder with wider "hips". It produces warm, powerful tones, especially in the low register, yet retains remarkable clarity and musicality.

Taylor Expression System 2 Preamp: in order to faithfully reproduce the amplitude and fundamental character of their acoustics, it took Taylor several years to develop the Expression System (ES). Thanks to new sensors and a substantially redesigned circuit, the Expression System 2 offers even greater responsiveness and dynamics, and according to Taylor, around 25% more warmth.
