The “Taylor Presentation Series” represents the top model of the Taylor line, the highest level of Taylor craftsmanship, better and more luxurious is not possible! This Taylor PS18e features a Grand Auditorium body with an Adirondack spruce top and a hand-carved ebony armrest, which wonderfully combines aesthetic beauty with absolute playing comfort. Further exquisite details are the colorful mother-of-pearl inlays on the floral pattern of the ebony fingerboard as well as on the binding, rosette and headstock. The guitar also features Gotoh gold tuners, a bone bridge and nut and the proven Taylor ES2 pickup. However, the most striking feature is certainly the Macassar wood used to make the back, sides and the back of the head stock. On the one hand this gives the guitar a really classy look and on the other this type of wood certainly guarantees the best sound quality. And this acoustic guitar sounds really phenomenal - above-average highs, tight bass, no mud, great sustain, extremely present and transparent. The great playing comfort provided by Taylor's most versatile and popular design, the Grand Auditorium, also matches this. This design is right in the middle: not too big to make playing pleasant and comfortable, but still big enough to produce a full and great sound. No wonder the Grand Auditorium is Taylor's most popular design. So we are pleased to be able to offer you this combination of sound, playing comfort and luxury in top condition with only minimal signs of use.incl. original hard case, Taylor brochuressubject to differential taxation
