This guitar is hard to match in terms of pure sweet tone. Indian Rosewood back and sides with an Engelmann spruce top, ebony frettboard, and Hawaiian Koa rosette. It has a sweet and full harmonic structure that cuts through the mix without being too "tinny" as some taylors are described. It is made to rival the Martin D-28, and in my opinion this is the hands down winner. This is a 2006, and the wood has aged perfectly. There is not a single mark on this guitar and it has been babied all its life. Includes the original Taylor case, and for the FULL asking price, I will include the LR Baggs pickup for FREE.
