This translates into more low-end expansiveness, power and projection. The guitar has more sonic push toward an audience or a microphone, yet with pleasing musical clarity. Even the treble notes have enhanced warmth and depth. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompared to the Gold Label Super Auditorium, the curves and depth of the Grand Pacific produce even more volume and tonal depth. Its voice is earthy, honest, and uncomplicated like sonic comfort food. A reliable acoustic workhorse both seasoned and soulful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFitting into the distinctive design aesthetic of the Gold Label Collection, the guitars feature Andy’s modified headstock shape with an angled back cut and scriptstyle Taylor logo inlay, a different pickguard shape, and a Honduran rosewood Curve Wing bridge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 517e's clean, understated appointments reflect its down-to-earth, workhorse spirit. Its torrefied spruce top and mahogany back and sides are paired with a cream binding with simple black\/white top purfling and a single-ring rosette in cream and black with black\/white purfling. \"Crest\" inlay motif in cream features simple dot\/diamond position markers in the fretboard crowned with a new headstock inlay. Finishing out the features are a mahogany neck with a West African Crelicam Ebony fingerboard, firestripe pickguard, Indian rosewood bridge pins, Taylor Nickel Tuning machines, and LR Baggs Element VTC electronics.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eExclusive to the Gold Label Collection, Taylor's new neck design combines the tonal benefits of a long-tenon neck joint with easy neck angle micro-adjustability, allowing the string height (action) to be tweaked with unprecedented ease and precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe long tenon extends deeper into the guitar body and, together with the heel structure, enhances the wood coupling to produce greater low-end resonance and a sound comparable to traditional neck designs. Like Taylor’s existing neck, the neck joint is glueless, but instead of incorporating tapered shims to calibrate the neck angle, the design is shimless.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSerial #: 1203306075\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTop Material: Torrefied Spruce\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBack and Side Material: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNeck Material: Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFingerboard Material: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTuning Machines: Taylor Nickel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut Width: 1-3\/4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eScale Length: 25-1\/2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBracing: Fanned V-Class\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge: Honduran Rosewood \"Curve Wing\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBridge Pins: Indian Rosewood\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNut: TUSQ\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSaddle: Micarta\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFinish: Gloss Body, Satin Neck\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eElectronics: LR Baggs Element VTC\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePickguard: Firestripe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eStrings: D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCase: Taylor Deluxe Hardshell, \"British Cocoa\" Vinyl Exterior\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cspan data-sheets-root=\"1\"\u003eThe guitar pictured is the actual guitar that you will receive.
