Conceived and launched in times of great turmoil, the American Dream AD27e combines premium performance and price, making it accessible to professional musicians. This model features solid sapele back and sides overlaid with solid mahogany, a combination of hardwoods that produces a meaty midrange and even balance across the tonal spectrum. Equipped with Class V bracing for additional volume and sustain, the Grand Pacific body shape also brings a seasoned response that evokes the sounds of early acoustic recordings. The AD27e's embellishments include beveled body edges, black top purfling, 4mm dot fingerboard inlays, tortoiseshell pickguard, and Urban Sienna color, all wrapped in a 2.0mil matte finish. It comes with ES2 electronics built into a Taylor AeroCase case.
