Taylor Gold Label 717e, Sunburst

Gold Label 717e SB

With a lustrous golden-brown burst top to complement its warm, heritage voice, the Gold Label 717e SB adds an entirely new flavor of tone to the Taylor lineup. This modified Grand Pacific round-shoulder dreadnought features a deeper body depth that yields a richer, warmer, more open voice with clear low-end power and a round character across the frequency spectrum—even in the treble range. Inside, our fanned V-Class bracing improves volume and sustain, letting the lush overtones of the rosewood/spruce pairing bloom as notes resonate. This Gold Label guitar also sports our revolutionary Action Control Neck™, which combines the playability of the Taylor neck profile with a simple adjustment bolt that makes it easy to dial in your preferred feel in seconds. 

Visual appointments reflect the guitar's old-school sound, including a firestripe pickguard, a Curve Wing bridge in Honduran rosewood with Indian rosewood bridge pins, and cream-colored binding, rosette and Crest inlays. This model ships with LR Baggs Element VTC electronics for warm, clear plugged-in sound and a deluxe hardshell case with a British Cocoa exterior.

 

Features

Grand Pacific Body Shape: A versatile workhorse, this round-shoulder take on the classic dreadnought body yields clear low-end power and a warm, blended voice.

Indian Rosewood Back & Sides: Deep lows, clear trebles and a slight scoop in the midrange. Rich overtone response with a sparkling, high-fidelity character.

Spruce Top: The most common top wood between Sitka, Adirondack and Engelmann varieties. Bold, clear, and dynamic sound suits any playing style.

Action Control Neck: Building on Taylor’s legacy of easy-playing necks, the new Action Control Neck pairs a long-tenon joint for added warmth and depth with a patented system for effortless string height adjustment.

LR Baggs - Element VTC Pickup: This undersaddle pickup channels tone from the movement of a guitar’s top, delivering a remarkably warm, detailed sound in Gold Label and Legacy Collection guitars.
