A complete re-interpretation of the traditional dreadnaught and with a sonic character completely unlike anything else in the Taylor line - the unique round-shoulder silhouette of the 517e Grand Pacific, crafted by Master Builder Andy Powers - incorporates revolutionary V-class bracing to dramatic effect to deliver something that completely unexpected, both sonically and visually.
In a slight deviation from the traditional Cedar / Mahogany heritage of the 500 series family -Tropical Mahogany back and sides with a solid Sitka spruce top are combined create a rich, focused sound with a delightful layering and blur of notes that is perfectly captured by the onboard ES2 electronics. The Builder’s Edition 517e is the perfect guitar to contrast other guitars or stringed instruments, whether in a recording or ensemble environment – and the curvaceous lines only add to the mystique that you simply must play, and feel – to believe.
With unbelievable playing comfort, warm, organic tone and understated elegance - whether you’re a traditionalist hankering for classic looks, or chasing the allure of something completely different with a seductively bold and versatile tone profile – The Builder’s Edition 517e lobs a hand grenade into the tea party of traditional dreadnaught values.
