If what you're looking for tone and playability in your guitars then the Taylor 100 series is one for you. These guitars have plenty of each since they sport a solid Sitka spruce top and sapele laminate back and sides. The redesigned 100 Series now features both Dreadnought and Grand Auditorium shapes. Along with a cutaway adding upper range to the tone and the ES-T pickup primes you for plugging in.
