Important Disclosure / Factory Service History:

This guitar previously sustained shipping-related top and side cracking and was professionally evaluated and repaired through the Taylor factory service department in El Cajon, California. The picture of the bottom right bout shows the small mark left from the repair.

Per Taylor’s written assessment:
“The sound of the guitar will not be affected by the damage or repairs.”

Taylor additionally performed their Revive service package including:
• Neck angle adjustment
• Nut replacement
• Saddle replacement
• Fret dressing
• Full setup and playability optimization

The guitar is structurally sound, stable, and plays exceptionally well.

This listing is intentionally represented accurately and transparently for sophisticated buyers seeking collector-grade Brazilian Taylor instruments with documented provenance and factory-backed service history.
