Here's a 2017 Taylor 514ce Japan Limited Prototype acoustic electric guitar. Taylor made this guitar in the USA as a prototype for a limited edition run that was sold to the Japanese market exclusively. It is a Taylor 514CE, but with a few different aesthetics from the ones made for the USA market - most notably a satin finish and dot inlays. The back and sides are tropical mahogany, and the top is Western Red Cedar. It has the Expression 2 pickup system. It's in near-mint condition. The frets are perfect and look unplayed. The only blemishes we can find are two little spots in the finish right at the edge of the pickguard...you really have to look closely to even find them. Other then that the guitar looks perfect. It sounds great, looks great, and has that little extra bump of coolness because it's a prototype. It's doubtful you'll find another one like this in the USA. Let your buddy stew on that!

  Here's a beautiful 2005 Taylor T5-C1 Custom Guitar with flamed maple top in near mint condition. This guitar has been upgraded with Gotoh 510 tuners. The Gotoh 510's offer a smoother feeling and more precise tuning than the standard tuners - a welcome improvement. There are no dings, nicks, or scratches anywhere to be found. The neck is perfectly straight. The frets are in perfect condition. Everything works just like it's supposed to. The guitar plays like a dream, and most importantly, sounds incredible. The original hardshell case is included.
  A resonant, fully hollow thinline body is the backbone of the T5. Its comfort and playability is unquestionable, with the performance freedom of a solidbody and the feel and sound of a beloved Taylor acoustic. Whether played through an electric or acoustic amp, it delivers a fantastic range of pure tones from smooth, strumming acoustic to crunchy electric chords.
  Electronics include a unique 5-way pickup system composed of a magnetic acoustic humbucker, magnetic electric humbucker, and a single Dynamic Body Sensor soundboard pickup, as well as a preamp system for mixing up the exact tone you need. Full binding, bone nut and saddle, stylized f-holes, a mahogany neck, sapele body, and an ebony fretboard and headstock overlay are standard.

Here's a 2001 Taylor 512 model with spruce top and active Fishman under saddle pickup. Grand Concert size. Professional, all solid wood construction. Mahogany back and sides, spruce top, mahogany neck, with ebony fingerboard and bridge. It is in very good condition. The neck is straight and true. Frets are in fantastic condition, showing only the slightest hint of being played. There are a few dings here and there, but nothing that takes away from the sound or playability. It's a lovely guitar all around. The sound is balanced while also being surprisingly loud for a small bodied instrument - the spruce top is bigger and louder sounding than the Cedar top that you'll typically find on a 512 model. Plays like butter, with low and fast action. The smaller size body is so incredibly comfortable. Comes with original case that also looks brand new. This is a fantastic price for a fantastic guitar. Grab it while you can. You wont regret it.

The Grand Pacific 317, featuring Taylor's new round-shoulder dreadnought body voiced with their award-winning V-Class bracing, helps usher in a whole new Taylor sound. Notes blend smoothly together to produce a warm and seasoned acoustic voice with clear low-end power. Built with solid sapele back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top, the guitar’s tonal response sits comfortably between the dry, focused character of mahogany and the harmonically complex sound of rosewood. The body’s wider waist helps produce a strong bass response, but without the woofiness that can sometimes plague bigger-body guitars. That low-end clarity blends evenly with the guitar’s mids and highs, yielding a rich, dynamic tone with notes that overlap into a seamless whole. V-Class bracing, tailored for the Grand Pacific body, dials up the power and sustain, along with improved intonation, making this a versatile tool for jamming with other musicians, playing alongside a vocalist, or embarking on solo adventures. Whatever your musical calling, the Grand Pacific 317 will make an inspiring companion.

Taylor's popular Grand Auditorium 314ce is an acoustic workhorse that performs equally well in the practice room, recording studio, and on stage. This latest edition features their acclaimed V-Class bracing, a revolutionary innovation in acoustic sound that responds with greater musicality and harmonic agreement. By introducing a more orderly vibration to the guitar’s top, V-Class bolsters the sustain and volume to offer players a more dynamic voice to explore, while also resolving the minor intonation issues that players have long had to contend with. Together with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, you can expect a balanced and articulate blend of top-end brightness, midrange fullness, and low-end warmth that accommodates an array of playing styles. Appointments include black binding, Gemstone fretboard/peghead inlays in Italian acrylic, and satin-finish back and sides with a gloss top. A Venetian cutaway invites your fretting hand up the neck, while their proprietary ES2 electronics serve up faithful plugged-in tone. The guitar ships in a deluxe hardshell case.

Hawaiian koa and Western red cedar is a delightful tonewood combination that we haven’t utilized in years, so getting to pair them up in this limited edition Grand Concert was an exciting opportunity. Cedar’s soft-touch response and low-end warmth makes it an ideal counterbalance as a guitar top with back and sides of koa, since the Hawaiian tonewood tends to be brighter and more articulate. The 12-fret configuration makes a difference here, since the shifted bridge position opens up greater depth and presence in the midrange, while also giving the guitar a slinky, relaxed fretting feel. Details for this model include faux tortoiseshell body binding and West African ebony fretboard binding, along with Century inlays in grained ivoroid and a shaded edgeburst finish treatment that gives the entire guitar a dark, alluring sheen. It ships with ES2 electronics in a deluxe hardshell case.

A new addition to Taylor's growing family of Grand Pacific guitars, the 327 is a round-shoulder dreadnought featuring Tasmanian blackwood back and sides with a solid mahogany top. This popular 300 Series tonewood configuration takes on new life in the Grand Pacific body style, characterized by a warm, rich lows and a blended, seasoned tone reminiscent of vintage acoustic recordings. Mahogany's dry, midrange-focused tone takes on extra character and presence here thanks to V-Class bracing, which adds volume and allows notes to sustain and bloom. Finished off with a subtle dark stain on the back and sides with an edgeburst top, the 327 is also appointed with black binding, a three-ring rosette, Gemstone fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, and satin black tuners. It ships in a deluxe hardshell case.
