Description
The Taylor 517e Gold Label Blacktop is a limited-edition acoustic-electric guitar that blends Taylor’s renowned craftsmanship with a bold visual aesthetic. Part of the Gold Label series, this model features a striking blacktop finish that contrasts elegantly with its natural back and sides, offering a modern twist on a classic design.
Crafted with a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, the 517e delivers a warm, seasoned tone with enhanced projection and sustain, thanks to Taylor’s innovative V-Class bracing. The Grand Pacific body shape provides a round-shoulder dreadnought experience, producing a rich, blended sound ideal for both strumming and fingerstyle playing.

The guitar’s playability is enhanced by a compound-carve neck profile and chamfered body edges, ensuring comfort during extended sessions. Equipped with Taylor’s Expression System 2 electronics, the 517e offers a natural amplified tone suitable for stage and studio use.
This exclusive model is a testament to Taylor’s commitment to innovation and quality, making it a desirable choice for musicians seeking both visual appeal and exceptional sound.
