Taylor Trey Hensley Gold Label 510e Special Edition Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Natural

What happens when a Nashville flatpicking virtuoso collaborates with one of the most meticulous acoustic builders in the world? The Taylor Trey Hensley Gold Label 510e Special Edition acoustic-electric guitar is the answer—an artist signature model and commanding square-shoulder workhorse crafted for players who demand clarity, warmth and depth from their instruments. Featuring a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid mahogany back and sides, this deep-bodied dreadnought pairs Taylor's innovative Fanned V-Class bracing with the LR Baggs Anthem SL electronics, delivering exceptional tone whether unplugged or amplified. Designed with Trey's input, this striking Gold Label 510e embodies the artistry and precision that earned him two IBMA Guitar Player of the Year awards and a Grammy.

Deep-Body Dreadnought With Enhanced Low-End Power

Anchoring the Trey Hensley 510e is its deep-body dreadnought shape-a Taylor Gold Label refinement of the classic square-shoulder design. This deeper profile increases internal air volume, amplifying bass frequencies for a fuller, more resonant tone. Solid mahogany back and sides contribute a warm, focused midrange with a direct tonal character, making this guitar ideal for ensemble settings. Meanwhile, the torrefied Sitka spruce top enhances dynamic responsiveness and projection, ensuring each note cuts through with clarity, whether flatpicked or played fingerstyle.

Fanned V-Class Bracing With Tonal Rout for Vintage Warmth

Taylor's Fanned V-Class bracing, a patented evolution of their revolutionary design, elevates the 510e's tonal capabilities. Arranged in a fan-like pattern across the lower bout, this bracing allows the soundboard to resonate more freely, resulting in greater sustain and a heritage-inspired warmth reminiscent of vintage dreadnoughts. Treble notes gain a sweet, full quality, while low-end frequencies carry a rich, woody depth that evokes the character of well-aged instruments. This bracing also improves intonation across the fretboard, ensuring chords and single notes alike sound balanced and true.

Long-Tenon Action Control Neck for Versatile Adjustability

Debuting on the Gold Label series, the long-tenon Action Control Neck enhances both tone and playability on the 510e. Its extended neck joint improves the connection between neck and body, adding resonance and warmth to the guitar's voice. The Action Control feature allows players to adjust string height quickly and precisely, without removing strings or the neck, making it easy to adapt to changing styles, environments, or personal preferences. Paired with the Gold Label neck profile and a genuine West African ebony fingerboard, this neck delivers comfort and precision for demanding musicians.

LR Baggs Anthem SL Electronics for Natural Amplified Tone

Equipped with the LR Baggs Anthem SL pickup system, the 510e offers studio-quality clarity for amplified performances. This system combines an undersaddle piezo pickup with an internal condenser mic, capturing both the string detail and the natural resonance of the guitar's tonewoods. Soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls provide intuitive adjustments, ensuring balanced, natural tone whether you're playing solo acoustic sets or cutting through a full band mix.

Premium Details With Gold Label Craftsmanship

The Trey Hensley Gold Label 510e showcases Taylor's commitment to artistry and detail. A Honduran rosewood Curve Wing bridge with bone pins enhances sustain and tonal clarity, while cream binding with black/white purfling adds understated elegance. Crest inlays adorn the ebony fingerboard, and the Antique Blond gloss finish highlights the torrefied spruce top's golden hues. A double-layer pickguard, Gold Label interior branding and Taylor nickel tuners complete the aesthetic, while the included Taylor Deluxe hardshell case ensures safe transport for players on the go.
