The Builder's Edition Series of Taylor's are detailed with premium features designed to maximize player comfort, including chamfered body edges and a new compound-carve neck profile that compensates for the change in your hand position as you move along the neck. Subtly contoured fretboard edges and a rounded, ridgeless heel add to the guitar’s pleasing fretting-hand feel, while a refined bridge shape brings extra comfort to your pick hand. On the 717 Grand Pacific, a torrefied Sitka spruce top combines with a rosewood body to produce a broad dynamic range which accommodates a versatile range of playing styles. Taylor's new patented V-Class bracing pattern coaxes new levels of projection, sustain, and improved intonation out of the guitar. The interior label on all V-Class guitars bears the signature of master guitar designer Andy Powers. This model is fitted with Taylor's ES2 system and is ready for the stage.
