Taylor Urban Ash 424ce LTD Western Sunburst

Urban Ash has carved out a niche for itself in the Taylor line as a premium back and side wood with a dry, focused midrange and balance akin to high-grade mahogany. Now, it's debuting as a top wood in the 424ce LTD Western Sunburst, a Grand Auditorium crafted with back, sides and top of solid Urban Ash. As a hardwood, Urban Ash delivers a natural compression effect that will sound familiar to players of mahogany or koa guitars, smoothing out the initial attack to yield a remarkably balanced profile across the frequency spectrum. This model serves up the same fundamental focus you would expect from mahogany - the note you play is the note you'll hear, and the restrained overtone response makes the 424ce LTD Western Sunburst a superstar in recording applications. Inside, the V-Class bracing generates its trademark blend of enhanced volume and sustain, coaxing greater musicality and tunefulness from this versatile guitar. Appointments for this limited-edition model match its 400 series counterparts and include black binding, a three-ring black rosette, Renaissance fretboard and peghead inlays in Italian acrylic, a black pickguard, Taylor satin black tuners, and a Western Sunburst gloss finish. It ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.
