Taylor Guitars 700 Series

Indian rosewood’s rich musical properties have made it one of the most popular tonewoods in the acoustic guitar world. Among Taylor’s several classes of premium rosewood guitars, our 700 Series is the latest to reveal a tonal and aesthetic makeover. The result is a more powerful voice dressed in wood-centric appointment details that showcase an earthy, understated elegance.

Taylor 722Ce Koa

700 Series - Taylor 722ce Koa

$3,699

Players have always appreciated Hawaiian koa’s rich tonal character and beautiful aesthetics, and our new 722ce adds to that heritage with Select-grade koa back, sides and top. Together with V-Class bracing, the Grand Concert body shape and a thin matte finish that preserves optimal resonance, this model yields a bold, sprightly attack with a vibrant midrange response, pristine trebles and a warm low end that grows richer with time and play. This new model looks as striking as it sounds with koa’s natural color variegation highlighted by rosewood binding, a paua shell rosette, a dark-stained maple pickguard and new Fountain inlays in mother-of-pearl. The 722ce ships with the built-in ES2 pickup and a deluxe hardshell guitar case.

Taylor 714ce

$2999.00

Taylor 714ce

A versatile instrument suitable for a range of musical applications, the Grand Auditorium 714ce boasts a rich and dynamic voice. The Lutz spruce top responds with the sonic power and headroom of old-growth Adirondack spruce, with an extra splash of warmth across the tonal spectrum. Together with Taylor’s patented V-Class bracing scheme and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, this guitar resonates with spectacular power, clarity and sustain. One of the most inspiring attributes of the bracing architecture is the noticeably enhanced in-tuneness of the notes, with more harmonic agreement among chords and extra girth in upper-register notes. The result is a balanced, textured sound that’s rich in tonal nuance with enough dynamic range to support hard hitters and soft pickers alike. Aesthetically, the 714ce sports an aesthetic that balances rootsy and refined elements, featuring wood-rich details like koa binding, a herringbone-style Douglas fir/maple rosette, and bias-cut Douglas fir top trim, along with abalone Reflections fretboard and peghead inlays and a “weathered brown” pickguard. The guitar ships with ES2 electronics in a deluxe hardshell case.

Builder's Edition 717e

$3299.00

Taylor Builder's Edition 717e

Part of Taylor’s inaugural class of Grand Pacific guitars, the Builder’s Edition 717e builds on a long tradition of rosewood/spruce dreadnoughts but breaks new ground with an entirely new Taylor sound. The round-shoulder dreadnought shape, featuring Taylor’s award-winning V-Class bracing, produces warm, seasoned acoustic tone in which individual notes overlap and blend smoothly together, while the low-end power common among dreadnoughts boasts greater clarity here. V-Class brings extra punch and sustain, along with improved intonation and musicality across the entire frequency spectrum. Together with rosewood’s harmonic complexity and the played-in sound of the torrefied spruce top, players can expect rich, luxurious tonal character from top to bottom. It’s a voice comfortably rooted in a traditional sound, yet updated to offer more expressive musical range. As a Builder’s Edition model, the 717e also sports an array of premium, player-friendly features: chamfered body edges, rolled fretboard edges, and a new compound-carve neck profile, whose contours match the natural adjustments in the player’s hand position when moving up and down the fretboard. Even the bridge design was refined to add a more ergonomic feel for the player’s pick hand. Taylor’s noise-reducing Silent Satin finish displays the muted sheen of an older guitar, while elegantly understated appointments include mother-of-pearl Arrowhead fretboard and peghead inlays, with sapele binding. This edition also features our stage-ready ES2 electronics.
