Overview

The AD22e offers players all the warm, seasoned tone, workmanlike style and exceptional value of the American Dream Series in a compact, accommodating Grand Concert frame. Featuring all-solid-wood construction and Taylor's tone-enhancing V-Class bracing, this model's mahogany top pairs with sapele back and sides for a rich response with a bold midrange character and clear, pristine highs.

The Grand Concert's 24-7/8" scale length makes for a relaxed, slinky feel that will please fingerstylists and traditional pickers alike, while the hardwood top helps to even out the attack for a more balanced sound all the way down the neck. Chamfered body edges provide an even more intimate feel, while the ultra-thin matte finish preserves the guitar's performance-forward aesthetic.

Other visual details include 4mm dot fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, black top purfling, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard and a single-ring rosette. The non-cutaway AD22e includes Taylor's ES2 acoustic pickup and ships with a lightweight, durable AeroCase.
