Just as the Grand Pacific body shape introduced a new kind of seasoned tone to Taylor's lineup, the new AD27e Flametop brings a new sonic flavor with an earthy, broken-in character.
This slope shouldered dreadnought-style guitar boasts back, sides AND top of solid Big Leaf maple, with Taylor's V-Class bracing under the hood. Combined with nickel bronze strings from D'Addario, the maple construction results in an appealingly rustic sound that's totally distinct from the pristine, vibrant quality that many players associate with a Taylor guitar.
Visually, the AD27e Flametop offers a rootsy, workmanlike vibe that fits right in with its siblings in the American Dream Series, with maple's beautiful figuring complemented by a dusky Woodsmoke finish and a satin sheen. It features Taylor's ES2 electronics and ships in a lightweight, super-sturdy AeroCase.
