Sound Pure's Take
You're sure to be seen and heard loud and clear with this big ol' blonde! The big body and Maple back/sides make for a punchy, projecting, and nicely compressed (not too bassy!) voice that will cut through a band with ease. Little bit 'o' bling for the showman/woman in all of us, pickup that's working as well as it ever has, cutaway for proven extra-groovin' playability--limited is the last way you'll feel with this beauty!
Condition: Used, Excellent
From Taylor Guitars
As part of Taylor’s dramatically revamped 600 Series, the maple Dreadnought 610e will surprise players who wouldn’t expect maple to produce such warmth, richness and sustain. As a result, it will compete favorably with its rosewood or mahogany Dreadnought counterparts. The non-cutaway body style is custom-voiced for power and clarity with an ultra-fast response for robust picking and strumming. Despite the Dread’s potent low-end output, customized back bracing and a torrefied (specially roasted) spruce top bring a beautiful balance to the overall sound profile. The torrefied top also produces an aged, played-in sound from the very first strum. Other tone-enhancing touches include the use of protein glues and ultra-thin finish to minimize dampening. Aesthetic features include a hand-rubbed “Brown Sugar” stain on the back and sides, which gives maple’s figure a beautiful violin-hued appearance without adding thickness to the finish, plus grained ivoroid Wings fretboard inlays, an inlaid ebony backstrap, ebony binding with ivoroid purfling, an ebony/ivoroid rosette, a striped ebony pickguard, and Taylor’s Expression System® 2 acoustic electronics. The guitar includes a deluxe hardshell case.
