Taylor 500 Series | Builder's Edition 517 - Wild Honey Burst *B-Stock*

Featuring the Grand Pacific dreadnought body shape, exclusive comfort features and top-tier tonewoods, the Builder's Edition 517 WHB introduces Taylor players to a new kind of sound within the lineup. Solid mahogany back and sides generate a warm, punchy midrange response with projection and aged-in warmth from the torrefied Sitka spruce top, resulting in a blended, seasoned tone with clear low-end power. Taylor's V-Class bracing enhances the response with more volume and longer sustain while also providing greater harmony between notes. This Builder's Edition model also boasts chamfered edges and a compound-carve neck profile for a more seamless feel, and the Silent Satin finish reduces incidental playing noise for recording applications.

• Builder's Edition model with premium comfort features
• Solid mahogany back/sides for midrange punch, focus
• Torrefied spruce top offers warmth and projection
• V-Class bracing generates more volume and sustain

Grand Pacific - This round-shoulder dreadnought delivers a new flavour of warm, rich Taylor tone.

Tropical Mahogany - A midrange powerhouse. Mahogany is prized for balance and articulation, making it one of the best all-around tonewoods there is.

Torrefied Spruce - Treated with a special roasting process, torrefied spruce tops deliver all the clarity, balance and projection you'd expect from a traditional spruce top with an extra dash of warmth and played-in depth.

V-Class Bracing - Taylor's patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern - a new sonic engine - that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns. 

This guitar is in B-Stock condition, with only a small blemish on the right shoulder from a previous repair. This is a great way of getting your hands on a brilliant guitar for a fantastic price.
