Introducing the newly updated Taylor Academy Series 10e Dreadnought acoustic/electric guitar.
Designed with newer guitar players in mind, but appealing to experienced players as well, the Academy 10e combines the rich voice of the Dreadnought body shape with a comfortable feel that will encourage beginners to grow their skills.
A solid torrefied spruce top serves up plenty of volume and articulation with a splash of played-in sweetness, making this a musically versatile choice for players wanting a guitar with a broad sonic range.
Walnut’s crisp highs are balanced by a deep, woody low end that emerges as the guitar is played in.
In this model, the slender Taylor neck features a slightly narrower nut width of 1-11/16", helping make chords and notes easier to hold, and the armrest takes some pressure off your strumming arm.
The arm contour gives it a much more comfortable feel when playing sitting down.
The Academy 10e includes an ES-B pickup with a built-in digital tuner and a gig bag.
