Overview
317e
Watch VideoOne of the first models to be released with our Grand Pacific dreadnought body shape, the Taylor 317e serves up rich tone and classic vibes. Made in the USA with all-solid tonewoods, the 317e boasts sapele back and sides with a Sitka spruce top, generating a warm, rounded tone that hearkens to old-school acoustic recordings. V-Class bracing dials up the volume and sustain, helping this model produce clear low-end power without the woofiness that can affect some dreadnought-style guitars. A clean appointment package reflects its workhorse utility, and ES2 electronics provide easy amplification. The 317e ships with a deluxe hardshell case.
NAMM Best in Show, Winter 2019
“It is reassuring to note that a human armed with a chisel and old-fashioned ingenuity is capable of making waves—waves of both surf and sound, perhaps the biggest revolution in acoustic guitar architecture since the dawn of X-Bracing.”
In search for perfection sometimes innovative guitars come along that change our perception of what we want and need, and they actually bring new things out of us. The Grand Pacific is one of them.
