New to the lineup in 2020, Taylor’s Grand Theater body shape provides a supremely comfortable playing experience. But this small-bodied acoustic-electric sounds anything but small. Its cutting-edge C-Class bracing pattern gives it a full and robust bass response and the power to punch well above its weight class. The GTe gets its voice from a solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid urban ash back and sides. Reclaimed from Southern California’s bustling metropolis, urban ash delivers a sweet tone that’s reminiscent of mahogany. As much as your ears will like the sound of the guitar, your fingers will delight at the 24-1/8-inch scale length. The lower string tension makes the strings feel light and pliable, which is perfect for fingerstyle, cowboy chords, and the occasional solo. Plus, thanks to the stellar ES2 electronics, you can take the GTe onstage. Packing heavyweight power into a lightweight and comfortable body, the Taylor GTe is sure to impress you with its sound and feel.
