Taylor 310 Dreadnought Acoustic Guitar, Natural (2017)

Full Description

Dreadnought Body

Taylor have refined the classic Dreadnought shape to suit their own needs, producing low-end power, a snappy midrange, and strong, clear treble notes. Whilst still offering the powerful tones that you would normally get from a dreadnought, the redesigned take provides the essence of the balanced Taylor sound. With a blend of power and articulation, this dreadnought acoustic is perfect for flatpickers as well as players who love the traditional guitar shape and tones.

Sitka Spruce and Sapele

The Taylor guitar features a beautiful sitka spruce top, offering a broad dynamic range and a crisp articulation. Sitka spruce is the most commonly used wood for guitar tops as it generates a broad dynamic range and accommodates numerous playing styles, from aggressive strumming to fingerpicking. This stunning tonewood is contrasted with sapele back and sides, which delivers a consistent and balanced tone with an excellent top-end shimmer. This stunning combination of tonewoods not only provides you with a beautiful guitar, but also offers a great combination of tones.

Unique Bracing Pattern

The performance bracing pattern features customised bracing profiles and placement for each body shape to optimise their inherent strengths. This bracing pattern uses side braces as well as the standard setup, adding rigidity and helping to maximise both top and back movement. The overall effect is an enhanced midrange, sustain, and tone that features plenty of warmth.

Mahogany Neck and Ebony Fingerboard

Tropical Mahogany is used for the Taylor guitar’s neck, delivering a soothingly warm and mellow tone with good presence in the lower mids. Taylor’s unique NT neck design provides players with a perfectly straight and stable guitar neck, enhancing its resistance to common problems such as changes in humidity. An ebony fingerboard provides the acoustic guitar with extra tightness and clarity, creating a fast attack for added definition.
