The Taylor Expression System® authentically captures the majestic tone for which master-grade Brazilian rosewood and Engelmann spruce are famous. Hand-selected heart of abalone adorns the edges of the fingerboard and peghead, as well as along the top and bottom edges completing this guitar “masterpiece.”
The marriage of Brazilian rosewood and premium Engelmann spruce yields superb tonal clarity, with deep, rich bass, commanding projection, and wonderfully complex overtones.
The Jumbo delivers the extra-deep resonance and volume that come with a larger sound chamber together with its own signature subtleties. Revoicing has sharpened its tonal difference from the Dreadnought. With a huge presence, the Jumbo is perfectly suited for aggressive strumming.
Designed to faithfully reproduce your guitar's native tone, the Expression System utilizes patented Dynamic Sensors to capture top and string vibration like never before. Created in partnership with renowned audio pioneer, Mr. Rupert Neve, the Taylor ES is seamlessly integrated into the design of the guitar from the ground up. Onboard tone controls provide added flavor, or set flat for an uncolored, exceptionally clean amplified sound.
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).
