722ce

Players have always appreciated Hawaiian koa's rich tonal character and beautiful aesthetics, and the new 722ce adds to that heritage with Select-grade koa back, sides and top. Together with V-Class bracing, the Grand Concert body shape and a gloss finish that preserves optimal resonance, this model yields a bold, sprightly attack with a vibrant midrange response, pristine trebles and a warm low end that grows richer with time and play. This new model looks as striking as it sounds with koa's natural color variegation highlighted by rosewood binding, a paua shell rosette, a dark-stained maple pickguard and new Fountain inlays in mother-of-pearl. The 722ce ships with the built-in ES2 pickup and a deluxe hardshell guitar case. 

Features

• Grand Concert Body Shape: A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.
• Hawaiian Koa Back & Sides:  Few woods carry the allure of Hawaiian koa, with its gorgeous figure and sweet, complex tone.
• Hawaiian Koa Top: A koa top's visual beauty is instantly inspiring, while its sonic rewards unfold over time, as warm, sweet overtones gradually emerge.
• Expression System 2 Electronics:  The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
• Venetian Cutaway: The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
• V-Class Bracing: Taylor's patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
