Description
The Taylor Legacy Collection Collection This retrospective family of guitars honors the Legacy Collection of Taylor founders Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug and their contributions to the world of guitar-making with models that channel Bob’s early inspirations and design innovations. The first 100 guitars built of each model feature an interior label personally signed by Taylor founders Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug. Legacy 810e The Legacy 810e brings a traditional body shape back into the fold: the Dreadnought, arguably the most recognizable of all acoustic guitar body styles, which has more recently evolved into the Grand Pacific (a round-shouldered Dreadnought) elsewhere in the Taylor line. This rosewood/spruce model channels the spirit of Bob’s earliest builds with room-filling volume and projection, complemented by the warmth and treble-range clarity players love in the classic wood pairing. Like other models in the Legacy Collection, the 810e blends the modern with the classic, featuring today’s patented Taylor neck, scalloped bracing and a straight-ear peghead shape that hearkens back to the company’s Lemon Grove days. Aesthetic appointments reflect Bob’s clean, classic style with white plastic binding, a three-ring rosette in green abalone, non-engraved Large Diamond fretboard inlays in mother-of-pearl, ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, nickel tuning machines, and a gloss finish for both the body and the neck. Features Solid Indian rosewood back and sides with Sitka spruce top Dreadnought body with scalloped bracing for exceptional volume and projection Straight-ear peghead and other classic visual details LR Baggs Element VTC undersaddle pickup with soundhole-mounted controls
