Taylor Academy 10e - Layered Sapele Back and Sides with Bag

Description

Taylor Guitars was founded in 1974 by Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, and has grown into the leading global builder of premium acoustic guitars. Renowned for blending modern, innovative manufacturing techniques with a master craftsman's attention to detail, Taylor acoustic guitars are widely considered among the best-sounding and easiest to play in the world, with Bob himself being known throughout the musical instrument industry as the visionary acoustic guitar manufacturer.


Designed and built with beginner guitar players in mind, or for those looking to own a Taylor on a budget, the Academy Series 10 combines the full-bodied tone and response of the classic dreadnought shape with Taylor's standards of comfort and playability. 
Conceived as a more practical take on the traditional guitar neck, the trademark neck on the Academy makes it easier to fret strings, hold chords, and bend notes, thanks to a slimmer profile and the slightly shorter 24.875-inch scale length of the Academy Series. The Academy 10 also sports an armrest, a premium feature which provides a more comfortable fit for players who are just learning how to manage the larger body of an acoustic guitar. 


With a solid spruce top and layered sapele back and sides, the dreadnought shape of the Academy 10 produces a warm sound with a strong low end and clear, ringing high tones, smoothened out by the punchy midrange of layered sapele. Taylor's Expression 2 System ensures the guitar's voice is perfectly reproduced when plugged in.
