Dreadnought

Models ending in "0"

Shown: Legacy 810e

A classic profile infused with Taylor ingenuity, the Dreadnought boasts a powerful voice with deep lows and sweet trebles, responding beautifully to an aggressive picking attack. With its large lung capacity and generous contours, the Dreadnought serves up a snappy midrange character and remains balanced across the frequency spectrum. Dreadnought guitars from our Legacy Collection feature classic X-bracing, while Gold Label models feature fanned V-Class bracing and slightly greater depth at the soundhole.

Who is this for?
Players who prefer a traditional profile with the playing comfort that comes with any Taylor guitar. Its volume and responsiveness to a strong attack make it a great choice for flatpickers who utilize both strumming and aggressive lead lines.
