Description
The Taylor 810e Legacy Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar is a part of Taylor's 50th-anniversary Legacy Collection, drawing inspiration from Bob Taylor's earliest designs. With a solid Sitka spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, this model offers a rich, full-range voice with complex overtones and extended sustain. Limited to just 100 pieces signed by founders Bob Taylor & Kurt Listug,, the 810e is crafted for players who demand powerful projection, clarity, and a design that honors Taylor's storied past while embracing modern improvements.
X-Bracing and Sitka Spruce Top for Crisp Articulation and Dynamic Range
The 810e Legacy features Taylor's X-bracing pattern, a design that enhances the guitar's resonance and structural integrity. The solid Sitka spruce top, known for its balance of stiffness and elasticity, allows for a broad dynamic range with crisp articulation. This makes the 810e a versatile instrument for both flatpicking and strumming, offering projection and clarity across the tonal spectrum.
Indian Rosewood Back and Sides for Rich Bass and Clear Highs
The solid Indian rosewood back and sides contribute to the guitar's powerful low-end response and shimmering highs. Rosewood is revered for producing deep, resonant bass notes and sparkling treble frequencies, while maintaining a slightly scooped midrange. This tonewood combination ensures a well-balanced sound with a full-range acoustic voice, complex overtones, and extended sustain, making the 810e a perfect choice for players who want depth and clarity.
Vintage-Inspired Aesthetics With Modern Enhancements
The 810e's design features elements from Taylor's early models, including a straight-ear peghead shape with a rosewood veneer and large mother-of-pearl diamond inlays. The faux tortoise pickguard, white plastic binding, and 3-ring green abalone rosette add to its vintage appeal. However, the 810e also incorporates Taylor's patented modern neck design, providing micro-adjustability and ensuring smooth, comfortable playability over time.
