Neo-Vintage Tone. Bold Projection. Modern Playability.
The Taylor 217e Plus SB combines classic Taylor craftsmanship with modern enhancements to deliver a rich, powerful acoustic voice. Featuring a torrefied Sitka spruce top, this model benefits from Taylor’s proprietary roasting process, producing an aged-in warmth, strong low-end clarity, and bold projection. Its Grand Pacific round-shoulder dreadnought body shape and tone-enhancing internal bracing ensure balanced resonance and dynamic response across the entire fretboard.
Designed for comfortable playability, the slender Taylor neck allows effortless fretting and smooth transitions, while Expression System® 2 (ES2) electronics capture your guitar’s natural acoustic tone for amplified performance. Upgraded appointments, including a full-body gloss finish and Sunburst top treatment, add visual elegance to its resonant, seasoned sound. A sturdy, lightweight AeroCase is included, making the 217e Plus SB ready for gigs, practice, or travel.
