Condition: Used, Excellent

This Taylor 510 is purely acoustic which isn't normal for new Taylors but boy does it have a nice and opened up sound that is sure to please modern players and even surprise someone who is typically a traditionalist.  Lutz spruce is a softer sounding top and paired with this lovely mahogany, you get a very open and airy sound with a softer attack. The low end and mid range definitely remind me of older vintage dreadnoughts but with the top end and balance that you'd expect from a Taylor, definitely a best of both worlds type of guitar! The condition is absolutely excellent and playability/cosmetics are top notch on this used item so please give us a call if you want a Taylor that's already quite mature sounding and ready for a new home!

Taylor’s 500 Series Dreadnoughts boast several uniquely compelling design features, including a slightly shorter 24-7/8-inch scale length and a V-carve neck with a slotted headstock. The result is an inviting handfeel with less string tension — making string bends fun — and matches up well with chord strummers and vocals. The dynamic response of the Lutz spruce top works especially well with the dry, woody sound of mahogany, producing a balanced voice with crisp highs and soft lows.
