The Taylor Gold Label 917e Grand Pacific Acoustic/Electric Guitar in Natural blends vintage-inspired warmth with modern innovation, creating a guitar that feels both timeless and forward-thinking. Built with a torrefied Adirondack spruce top and Honduran rosewood back and sides, this instrument produces a rich, powerful voice with deep low-end warmth and shimmering harmonic detail. The Grand Pacific body shape—Taylor’s round-shoulder dreadnought design—adds depth and projection while maintaining the clarity and balance that players expect from a premium Taylor acoustic.
The tonal character of the 917e is shaped by Taylor’s fanned V-Class bracing architecture, which enhances volume, sustain, and harmonic consistency across the fretboard. Whether you’re playing softly with fingerstyle dynamics or digging in with a heavier attack, the Adirondack spruce top responds with exceptional headroom and clarity. Honduran rosewood complements that power with lush overtones and a smooth, articulate voice that fills the room with warmth and dimension.
Designed with the player in mind, the guitar features Taylor’s innovative Action Control Neck, allowing easy string height adjustments without removing the neck or strings. A neo-tropical mahogany neck paired with a Crelicam ebony fretboard offers smooth playability and fast response, while the LR Baggs Element VTC electronics capture the guitar’s natural acoustic character for reliable stage or studio performance. Premium appointments—including Continental-style mother-of-pearl inlays, paua purfling, ivoroid binding, and Gotoh 510 tuners—complete the elegant look of this flagship instrument.
For players seeking a guitar that blends classic acoustic warmth with cutting-edge craftsmanship, the Taylor Gold Label 917e delivers a truly inspiring experience. From its powerful projection to its refined aesthetics, this guitar is built to perform at the highest level whether you’re recording, performing, or simply enjoying the sound of a beautifully crafted instrument. The Taylor Gold Label 917e Grand Pacific Acoustic/Electric Guitar – Natural with hardshell case is available at Haggerty’s Music.
