Unmatched Materials & Component Specifications

At the heart of the Taylor Legacy 810e's extraordinary sound are its carefully selected tonewoods and precision-engineered components. Taylor's master luthiers meticulously pair these elements to ensure optimal resonance, sustain, and playability.

• Top Wood: Solid Sitka Spruce. Renowned for its strength and elasticity, Sitka spruce is the gold standard for acoustic guitar tops. It offers a broad dynamic range, crisp articulation, and the ability to project sound with exceptional clarity. As the guitar ages, the Sitka spruce top will "open up," developing even richer harmonic complexities and a more resonant voice.
• Back & Sides Wood: Solid Indian Rosewood. Indian rosewood is celebrated for its deep, resonant bass, sparkling trebles, and scooped midrange, creating a complex and harmonically rich overtone series. This dense hardwood contributes significantly to the 810e's long sustain and lush, piano-like tone.
• Bracing: V-Class Bracing. Taylor's groundbreaking V-Class bracing system is a game-changer. Unlike traditional X-bracing, V-Class bracing allows the guitar top to vibrate more uniformly, resulting in increased volume, extended sustain, and improved intonation across the entire fretboard. This innovation provides a more harmonious and powerful playing experience.
• Neck: Tropical Mahogany. A strong and stable wood, tropical mahogany provides excellent neck stability and contributes to the guitar's clear, fundamental tone. Its consistent grain ensures a smooth feel for effortless playability.
• Fretboard & Bridge: West African Crelicam Ebony. Prized for its density and smooth feel, ebony offers exceptional durability and a crisp attack. Its natural oiliness makes it a joy to play, and its dark, elegant appearance provides a stunning contrast.
• Nut & Saddle: Tusq Nut. Engineered for consistent tone transfer and tuning stability, Tusq is a synthetic material that enhances sustain and clarity. Micarta Saddle. Micarta offers a uniform, consistent density that translates to balanced string-to-string volume and vibration transfer, especially for undersaddle pickups, resulting in even sound across the strings and ease of balancing amplified tone.
• Tuners: Taylor Nickel. High-quality Taylor nickel tuners provide precise and stable tuning, ensuring your guitar stays in pitch even during extended playing sessions.
• Electronics: LR Baggs Elements VTC. A warm, detailed acoustic tone with a discrete undersaddle pickup, enhanced sonic detail, and studio-like analog warmth with tape-like saturation thanks to the VTC (Vocal Tone Control).
• Scale Length: 25.5 inches
• Nut Width: 1.75 inches
• Case: Taylor Deluxe Hardshell Brown. Protect your investment with a premium, road-ready hardshell case.
