Bob Taylor personally selects the finest Brazilian rosewood and Engelmann spruce for these renowned instruments. Each model is an individual work of acoustic guitar building pageantry, adorned in shimmering abalone. Thanks to the Expression System’s unobtrusive design, acoustic electric options are now available. For those who yearn for the zenith of Dreadnought craftsmanship, this glorious six-string embodies Bob Taylor's grandest aspirations, in both the careful selection of premium tonewoods and the sublime appointments. Each Brazilian rosewood Presentation model is personally inspected by Bob Taylor to ensure that it meets his highest standards.
The marriage of Brazilian rosewood and premium Engelmann spruce yields superb tonal clarity, with deep, rich bass, commanding projection, and wonderfully complex overtones.
A traditional shape refined, we combine classic dreadnought volume and bass response with the definitive Taylor sound: clear trebles and an open, airy midrange that Bob Taylor's signature design accentuates. Recent re-voicing turns up the bass and volume even more. Dreadnoughts respond especially well to flatpicking or light-to-heavy strumming.
The finish used to create this guitar's lustrous gloss top, back, and sides was developed at Taylor for maximum durability and resistance to cold-checking. This ultra violet-cured finish is also more environmentally friendly than traditional lacquer finishes. Available in natural finish or with an optional Tobacco or Honey Sunburst top (with natural back and sides).
