Taylor 217e Plus Special Edition Honeyburst Grand Pacific Acoustic-Electric Guitar w/Bag

Tecate Honeyburst Guitars
Appealing aesthetics have long been central to the
Taylor design ethos, and strong player demand for
distinctive finishes continues to shape our lineup.
For 2026, we’re expanding that visual story with a
coordinated suite of Special Edition Honeyburst models
designed to make a powerful statement on the wall and
in players’ hands.

Spanning seven models at accessible price points,
this collection delivers a range of body styles and tonal
personalities, all bound by a shared honeyburst identity.
Each guitar features a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top,
offering the clarity, balance, and projection players
expect from Taylor, enhanced by a touch of aged-in
warmth thanks to our proprietary roasting process.

Layered-wood back and sides anchor the GS Mini, 100
and 200 Series models, while the 300 and 400 Studio
editions step up to all-solid construction for added tonal
depth and complexity. Bracing designs vary by body
shape, with V- and C-Class bracing featured on Grand
Auditorium and Grand Pacific models, and classic
X-bracing on Grand Concert and GS Mini guitars.
Appointments vary by model, but each Special Edition
features a radiant Honeyburst top, paired with either
a complementary shaded edgeburst or matching
honeyburst treatment on the back and sides—creating
a cohesive, eye-catching suite for dealers and players
alike.
