Description

Taylor 217-E Black Plus Maple Spruce

The Taylor 217e-BLK Plus brings the neo-vintage sound of the Grand Pacific body shape to the 200 series for the first time. Crafted with maple back and sides and a torrefied spruce top, this round-shoulder electrified dreadnought offers a warm sound and plenty of volume, sustain, and low-end power thanks to the C-Class bracing inside.

Our roasting process for the spruce soundboard adds a touch of extra depth and sweetness to the overall response, similar to what players would expect from an older, more played-in guitar. With its stunning all-black finish, easy-to-play neck, and built-in ES2 electronics, the 217e-BLK Plus offers wide musical utility in a package that is sure to stand out wherever you take it.
