Taylor Academy 10e Nat Sitka spruce top ES-B Electronics Dreadnought Electro Acoustic Guitar with Gig Bag

6-String | Sitka Spruce Top | Layered Sapele Back and Sides | Maple Neck | West African Crelicam Ebony Fretboard | ES-B Electronics | Non-cutaway | Taylor Gig Bag Case

Academy 10e
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 spruce top serves up plenty of volume and articulation, making this a musically versatile choice for players wanting a guitar with a broad sonic range. 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 Academy 10e includes an ES-B pickup with a built-in digital tuner and a gig bag.
