A new series to honour Taylor's history
We are pleased to present the new Taylor Legacy Collection of five acoustic models that honour Taylor's long history. Three of these are redesigned rosewood/spruce models from the iconic 800 Series, which hark back to some of Bob Taylor's earliest guitars. The other two centre on Bob's flagship Grand Auditorium body, which defined the modern Taylor sound. These two models are based on guitars from the 500 and 700 series. Inspired by Bob's original models, these retro models reflect the full range of Taylor Guitars' history by combining fundamental design elements with key developmenmts that have been made along the way.
Key features of the Legacy 810e
Honoring the innovations of Taylor designs dating back to 1975, the Legacy 810e offers the sound, look and feel of the original Dreadnought acoustic-electric guitar with updates to select features that enhance the overall performance and aesthetic. Crafted with Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top, this model pays tribute to Bob Taylor's ingenuity and instincts for guitar-making with a big, commanding sound full of warmth, sparkle and blooming overtones powered by traditional X-bracing and Bob's flair for tonal sophistication. Subtle updates include a modern Taylor neck profile offering relaxed fretting and simple adjustability, along with a slightly newer version of the Dreadnought body that still dates back to Taylor's earlier days.
Appointments recall the original details of early 800 Series guitars, including white binding, a three-ring rosette in green abalone, mother-of-pearl Large Diamond fretboard inlays, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, and ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots.
This Legacy guitar includes an undersaddle LR Baggs Element VTC pickup with soundhole-mounted controls. It ships with a deluxe hardshell case and sports a specially designed Legacy interior label.
