Indian Rosewood + Sitka Spruce: Tone for Any Function

One listen reveals why Bob Taylor loves the pairing of Indian rosewood with Sitka spruce: With its lush overtone response, crisp treble range and warm low end, it offers incredible balance and clarity that make it a highly versatile combo

Performance-Focused Design Elements

The 400 Series boasts innovations that refine the playing experience, including the comfortably slender, easy-to-adjust Taylor Neck and the tone-boosting V-Class bracing, which adds more volume and sustain while making for greater harmony between notes.

Expression System 2 Acoustic Pickup

All 400 Series models come with built-in ES2 electronics, which feature a behind-the-saddle pickup that delivers clear, organic-sounding tone when you plug in to an amplifier or PA.

Sunburst Tops and Fresh Inlays

400 Series models boast an alluring sunburst top finish treatment, along with our Finial inlay design in Italian acrylic, inspired by decorative flourishes in woodworking and architecture.

Hardshell Case Included with Every Guitar

All models in the 300 Series include durable hardshell cases so that you can safely transport your guitar wherever your music takes you.
