Description

R. Taylor guitars are not being built right now (and perhaps never again), so I feel that those that are still in circulation deserve special care. I purchased this guitar some months ago sent it out to the Taylor factory repair facility in California for a good looking over. While there, this already marvelous instrument received a complete overhaul: a new bridge; a new bone nut; a new bone saddle; a neck reset; a fret dress; a complete cosmetic detailing; and a setup. The guitar that came back to me and is offered here, looks, feels, plays and sounds like a brand new instrument! The specs of this incredible instrument include: a lovely Sitka top with striped Macassar Ebony back and sides; a tropical Mahogany neck with Ebony fretboard; 25.5" scale length; 1.75" nut width; 2 3/16" string spacing; Taylor ES-3 electronics; and Gotoh 510 tuners with Ebony buttons. This guitar has a huge and awesome voice - just check out the sound sample below. The tone is strong, balanced and articulate. It plays super easy as you would expect from a Taylor guitar. It comes with it's original Ameritage case also in mint condition and with all the original paperwork (including documentation of the recent work done by Taylor). This guitar cost $7K when it was purchased new back in 2010 and would cost substantially more if you could buy one today. It is now back to new condition and is offered for thousands less. A fabulous acoustic at a fabulous price!
