Taylor GT811E-LTD, Acoustic Guitar

This limited-edition GT 811e takes Taylor's compact, portable GT body shape to the next level with stunning appointments and a boldly striped sinker redwood top. The redwood, sourced from logs submerged in California riverbeds, is paired with solid Indian rosewood back and sides. Redwood boasts a high volume ceiling with much of cedar's warmth and touch sensitivity, while rosewood's lush overtone character, warm low end and crisp highs contribute to a flavorful tone profile.

Special appointments for this NAMM limited-edition model include a richly striped West African ebony fretboard and peghead veneer, maple binding, top purfling in black and maple with rosewood edge trim, a single-ring rosette in green abalone with a bound soundhole, a mother-of-pearl peghead inlay, a 4.5-mil full-body gloss finish, smoked nickel tuners, a rosewood pickguard and bone bridge pins with awabi (abalone) dots.
