Taylor AD27e Flametop

Taylor AD27e Flametop

The latest addition to the Taylor American Dream Series boasts an innovative sound that you won't be able to find anywhere else. Boasting an all-maple construction and rootsy aesthetic, this mouthwatering acoustic is a superb newcomer to the Taylor line-up.

Designed by Master Builder Andy Powers, the voice of the AD27e has been shaped into a dry, earthy texture that feels right at home in Roots, Country, Blues, and Americana music - even despite the bright sound usually associated with maple guitars.

Featuring a Grand Pacific body, V-Class bracing, and the choice of uncoated D’Addario Nickel Bronze strings (.012-.053), the guitar is designed to produce fewer overtones - lending a muted, mellow tone that is suited to rhythm playing and recording textures.

The dusky Woodsmoke finish is teamed up with a shaded edgeburst and satin sheen, and like other American Dream models it comes complete with chamfered body edges, 4mm dot inlays in Italian acrylic, and onboard ES2 electronics.

Taylor GTe Mahogany

Taylor GTe Mahogany

With its rough and ready appearance, the new Taylor GTe Mahogany is sure to turn heads. The classic design features an enticing flavour with a hint of the blues present in every fibre of its creation.

The unique, woody midrange on this guitar is combined with a balanced attack and natural compression thanks to its all-mahogany construction, serving up a musical character that is best described as ‘rootsy’.

The extra power in the bass range of the GTe is surprising given its size, coming courtesy of C-Class bracing inside the body. The extra-comfy 24-⅛” scale length means that fretting chords and bending strings feels natural, whilst the chamfered body edge is a premium touch that doesn’t go unnoticed.

Featuring a thin matte finish and Urban Sienna stain, the body of the guitar is offset with a eucalyptus fretboard, bridge, and peghead overlay. This is accented by a maple/black rosette that reflects the rustic charm and personality of this gorgeous instrument.
