Taylor 724ce  

Taylor

Taylor is an American company that was founded in 1974 when two boys bought an old hippie guitar shop. The boys were very passionate about guitars and put a lot of energy into the shop. Eventually, the shop evolved into an international company. All Taylor guitars today are made in either El Cajon in California or Tecate in Mexico. Taylor is very proud of this, because guitars that are produced close to headquarters go through a more thorough quality control process and employee satisfaction is better regulated. Taylor prioritises tone and comfort. All guitars are perfected and with modern luthier techniques the guitars can be made with more precision and consistency.

The 700 Series

The 700 series contains very unique guitars. All guitars are made of high-quality Hawaiian koa. Koa is a wood from Hawaii which creates a unique and beautiful sound. Its existence is threatened, but Taylor makes sure to source their koa sustainably. Koa is a special tonewood as it created a bright and deep sound that improves over the years. A koa guitar is thus a guitar that ages with you.

The 724ce

The 724ce is a great guitar. The body has a solid koa top, back, and sides. The guitar has a mahogany neck and an ebony fretboard. The guitar has a Grand Auditorium body, which was designed by Taylor in 1994 and is their most popular model. The Grand Auditorium is a bit smaller than the Dreadnought and a bit bigger than the Grand Concert. This also makes it more versatile, as the Dreadnought was designed for rhythm guitar and the Grand Concert for fingerpicking. The Grand Auditorium is a combination of both. The guitar has ES2 electronics so the amplified sound will sound authentic.
