“Boasting top-shelf tonewoods and a stunning array of appointments, the Gold Label 917e delivers sonic and visual sophistication shaped by its heritage inspiration and modern Taylor innovation. Honduran rosewood back and sides paired with a torrefied Adirondack spruce top in a reimagined Grand Pacific body, yielding a sublimely textured tone rich with lush, blooming overtones. The deeper-bodied round-shoulder dreadnought design produces greater projection, warmth and low-end expansiveness, while ensuring the pleasing musical clarity that Taylors are renowned for. ” – From the Taylor Website

This is a prime example of Taylor’s ability to create an exciting and beautiful instrument. Built with the finest woods and materials they have available, enhanced with custom appointments, it is a stunning guitar that sounds as good as it looks. Andy Powers has definitely enhanced the overall sound of Taylor’s guitars and this is a guitar that speaks to his hard work.
