Graham50 Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 A 5 year old Taylor Grand Pacific 517e in wild honey burst finish. Spruce and mahogany body ebony fretboard. The builders edition results in rounded edges to the body and fretboard and the back of the neck is shaped so the profile changes towards the body end which is supposed to make it easier to play higher up the neck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusoe Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 I saw this in the other place It's a lovely looking guitar. How does it play and sound? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randythoades Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 That looks lovely. I like the sloped shoulders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham50 Posted February 29 Author Share Posted February 29 This is the 4th Taylor I’ve owned (not all at the same time) and I must say that the volume and playability of the V class lives up to the hype. This has so much punch and particularly strong bass response. The sloped shoulders are reminiscent of the J45, a guitar I always thought I wanted, but this is just so responsive. I read a review which described it as Socal meets Nashville and that’s a pretty good summation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
