Ovangkol/Sitka
The timbre of ovangkol, which many find reminiscent of rosewood, combines with the punch of a Sitka spruce top to create a rich tonal tapestry.

Jumbo (JM)
The Jumbo's size suits it perfectly for aggressive strumming, but it's capable of sublime subtleties as well. While this shape gives you the greatest top surface, it’s quelled by the waist’s curvature and position. Overall, this is a strummer with a big sound.

Gloss Top/Satin Back & Sides
The finish used to create this guitar's textured satin back and sides and lustrous gloss top was developed at Taylor for maximum durability and resistance to cold-checking. This ultraviolet-cured finish is also more environmentally friendly than traditional lacquer finishes.
