Every once in a while a guitar arrives that completely ruins your ability to appreciate average guitars.
This is one of those guitars.
The moment we opened the case on this 2011 Taylor K24ce, the entire staff reaction could best be summarized as, "Well... that's ridiculous."
The Hawaiian koa on this guitar isn't merely figured. It's showing off. The top, back, and sides are covered in dramatic flame and curl that look like they were designed by someone who felt normal wood grain was simply too boring. Under lighting, the figuring dances around so much it almost appears animated.
Thankfully, this K24ce didn't spend all of its effort becoming gorgeous. It sounds phenomenal too. After nearly fifteen years of aging, the koa has developed the warm, rich, articulate voice that has made the K24 one of Taylor's most sought-after acoustic models. Clear highs, focused bass, beautiful note separation, and enough harmonic complexity to make you play the same chord repeatedly while pretending you're "evaluating the tone."
