First introduced in 1978, the Taylor 510 dreadnought is one of the company’s oldest models. While the general specs of mahogany back and sides with understated appointments have remained constant, the guitar’s design has had numerous tweaks. This year’s redesign by Taylor’s head luthier Andy Powers takes the 510 the furthest from its original blueprint, producing a highly distinctive dreadnought with some vintage-inspired and some new elements.
New features for the 510 include a slotted headstock, short scale, and vintage-style V-profile neck. Equally significant, though not as outwardly visible, are a new bracing design that includes a two-piece spruce-and-maple bridge plate and a top of Lutz spruce, a naturally occurring hybrid of Sitka and white spruce.
As the “e” in the guitar’s model designation indicates, the 2016 510e includes Taylor’s Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics. Consisting of three piezo sensors behind the saddle (rather than under it, as on most piezo systems), the ES2 includes controls for volume, bass, and treble in the bass side of the guitar’s upper bout and a preamp with access to a nine-volt battery at the end block.
With its great sound, easy playability, and unique feel, Taylor’s latest 510e is one of the cooler guitars to hit the market this year.
