Overview
50th Anniversary 217e-SB Plus LTD
Watch VideoMaking its debut in our 50th Anniversary Collection, this 217e-SB Plus LTD introduces the Grand Pacific body shape to the 200 Series. Layered Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top offer a pleasing blend of projection, warmth and clarity. The torrefied top, decked out with a tobacco sunburst, yields a sweet, played-in character, while our tone-enhancing C-Class bracing adds more volume, sustain and low-end presence. The round-shoulder dreadnought body delivers clear power in the bass range and round, broad notes that overlap for a seasoned tone that's sure to entice fans of vintage acoustic sounds. It makes a great all-purpose instrument, perfect for everything from strumming cowboy chords to flatpicking runs to softer fingerpicking. Limited-edition appointments include diamond fretboard inlays, gold tuners, ebony bridge pins with gold dots and a commemorative interior back label. It ships with ES2 electronics and a sturdy AeroCase.

Great Guitar!
I bought this guitar 4 days ago and I love it. From the moment I picked it up in the store and started playing it. Great sound and the neck is easy to play. This is my first experience with Taylor and starting off right!

Don’t hesitate to get one
Plays effortlessly, sounds amazing and of course looks beautiful. I cannot be happier with this purchase. I have a USA made Taylor and was a little skeptical about the layered wood. Not anymore.

Fine Fiddle
A fine guitar. Nice warm sounding tone. Not overly booming sound. The neck is a perfect fit for me. I have relatively small hands, so fit is important.
