Taylor

816ce

Our second offering in Indian rosewood, the 800 Series® traces its roots to the earliest Taylors. Bob’s latest design changes speak of traditional lutherie in the form of hand-set, figured maple binding. It’s a gorgeous upgrade that complements the beautiful hues of rosewood and sparkling inlay work. For many, the 800 Series is a true Taylor icon.

Top: Sitka Spruce. Back/Sides: Indian Rosewood. Cutaway & Expression System Pickup Standard.
