2012 DN7e Rosewood/Spruce Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar

The Taylor 2012 DN7e Rosewood/Spruce Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric Guitar is traditional, and by dreadnought definition, it' a battleship of a guitar. Constructed of tropical mahogany back and sides, topped with Engelmann spruce, and given Forward Shifted Pattern bracing, the DN7e has robust bass and articulate mids. The DN7e pairs rosewood with an Engelmann top for a deep, rich tone.

Dreadnought (DN)
The dreadnought body gives the DN7e has a potent tone flatpickers and strummers love. The most traditional of guitar shapes, Bob Taylor has evolved the Taylor Dreadnought over time to honor its enduring sonic heritage yet also refine the look and sound into a more modern package. The Taylor Dreadnought still boasts that powerful dreadnought tone that old school pickers expect, with deep lows and crisp highs, but with a voice that is more evenly balanced across the entire tonal spectrum. Pickers and strummers with an aggressive attack will love the blend of power and articulation of the DN7e, which allows for clear lead lines and crisp, driving rhythms.

Indian Rosewood
A strong midrange that' deeper in the low end and brighter on the top end than mahogany. Versatile and consistent, you can fingerpick it, strum it and flatpick it. Payers can rely on it to deliver.

Expression System
Taylor' groundbreaking Expression System (ES) was designed to naturally amplify the warm acoustic sound of your guitar. The ES is an all-magnetic acoustic guitar pickup system that works like a microphone to produce a pure signal and a warm, natural acoustic sound. When you plug in, you'll hear the sound of your guitar, not the sound of the pickup. No complicated controls. No tone simulators. Just a clean amplified acoustic guitar sound supported by three simple controls ” volume, bass and treble.
