Choose from Grand Pacific and Grand Concert models, all outfitted with our tone-enhancing V-Class bracing inside, as well as chamfered edges and slender Taylor necks for playing comfort. Finished off with clean appointments to preserve their rootsy look, American Dream Series guitars delivers neo-vintage inspiration for players of all styles.

FEATURES
Essential Features and Clean Aesthetics
With two tonewood pairings and a sleek, unpretentious visual character, the American Dream Series delivers performance without frills.

Experience the Richness of Solid Tonewoods
The American Dream Series is Taylor's most affordable entry point into the world of solid woods, which boast powerful resonance and distinct tonal flavors. Choose from the warmth and focus of sapele with mahogany or the clarity and balance of ovangkol with spruce.

Innovation Inside, Comfort Outside
Every model in the American Dream Series is built with our V-Class bracing, which articulates the guitar's vibration to produce unmatched volume and blooming sustain. On the outside, these guitars feature chamfered edges for a smoother, more accommodating feel.

Expression System 2 Acoustic Pickup
All models in the American Dream Series are available with ES2 electronics, the proprietary under-saddle pickup and preamp that delivers authentic acoustic tone when you plug in through an amp or PA. Select models are available without electronics.

Austere Details for a Neo-Traditional Aesthetic
The American Dream Series is sparingly appointed with subtle details that evoke a restrained, old-school sensibility, including 4mm dot fretboard inlays, faux tortoiseshell pickguards (except Blacktop models) and a thin matte finish that preserves resonance.

Blacktop Finish Makes a Bold Statement
Sporting a striking matte black finish treatment for the spruce top, the AD17 Blacktop is a Grand Pacific dreadnought that blends its traditional footprint with a contemporary visual flair.

AeroCase Included with Every Guitar
Every guitar in the American Dream Series comes with a super-durable AeroCase, a soft-sided case that offers all the protection of a traditional hardshell case at one-third the weight.
