Taylor's 217e-BLK Plus features its Grand Pacific shape in an all-black gloss guitar with torrefied spruce that offers an aged, warm sound along with C-class bracing that enhances the volume, sustain, and low-end. The back and sides of this guitar are made of a layered Big Leaf maple wood that brings a dry tone with focus on the midrange. ES2 electronics are installed with a simple volume, treble, and bass controls, and a Taylor Aerocase in included for easy and comfortable travel with your guitar. Please note that this guitar was delivered from the factory with a small scratch just under the bridge (as seen in photos); because of this the price has been discounted.

Grand Pacific

Expression System® 2
