Taylor C10e B6013 – Dreadnought, Adirondack Spruce/Honduran Rosewood

Integrating tone- and playability-enhancing features introduced by Taylor Guitars from the 1970s to the present day, this custom Legacy Collection model reflects decades of thoughtful design decisions. It features the tapered Dreadnought body shape and neck profile preferred by Bob Taylor, along with an entirely new forward-shifted, scalloped X-bracing pattern. Honduran rosewood back and sides are paired with an Adirondack spruce top, yielding a beautifully textured, harmonically rich voice with exceptional dynamic range. Fingerstyle players will appreciate the articulate response while heavier strummers will dig the extra headroom. Under the hood, the new forward-shifted bracing pattern is a variant of the classic X-bracing architecture refined to enhance warmth, depth and projection while producing a more open voice. Mission fretboard and peghead inlays in paua and grained ivoroid complement paua top trim, a paua peghead logo and a single-ring rosette in paua and Honduran rosewood.
