Taylor American Dream AD17 Walnut Acoustic Guitar Features:
Versatile AD17 acoustic guitar built in the USA
Grand Pacific slope-shoulder dreadnought body yields a more balanced dreadnought experience with more organic low end and a well-seasoned sound
Solid spruce top delivers quality resonance and vibrational transfer — must haves for great tone
Walnut back and sides offer tasteful dark warmth blended with bright chime, akin to rosewood but with a more open sound
Easy-playing mahogany neck and eucalyptus fingerboard supply sought-after Taylor playability
V-Class bracing increases output, enhances sustain, and reduces harmonic distortion
