Sitka Spruce top. Sapele back and sides.

Our 30-Day 100% Satisfaction Guarantee applies on this item. Buy it, and if it isn't just right for you, return it!
Description
The heralded Dreadnought is the most traditional of all acoustics. By definition, it's a battleship of a guitar and our DN Series pays tribute to that legacy -- and then some. The Dreadnought's booming bass and articulate mids dare you to dig in and challenge your flatpicking prowess.

Signature Taylor performance, quality, and value make their Sapele/Spruce acoustic guitars a great introduction to the solid-wood Taylor experience. Simple, traditional styling and renowned Taylor craftsmanship make this combination one of Taylor's most popular models.

"Awesome"
Feature:
Its an acoustic, you don't need features.

Quality:
Great quality, of course its got some dings becuase i keep running it into stuff but overall its great. Smells good too...

Value:
Acoustic wise I think its worth it. One of the best sounding guitars in that price range I played at the store.

Desirability:
Very basic. But I like basic. Not much "sex appeal" but its got that classic acoustic dreadnought look. Can't go wrong.

Sound:
The sound is amazing, bright yet dark. I am not dissapointed

Plays awesome I can't put it down. I play for 5 hours at a time.

Support:
