Taylor AD17E features a solid spruce top to provide a broad dynamic range with crisp articulation, and a walnut body which delivers a bright tone, tight low-end and dynamic sustain. Pairing spruce with the walnut gives you a tone that is crisp and articulate, yet balanced and responsive to a wide variety of playing techniques and styles. Meanwhile, V-Class bracing creates purer, more orderly notes that don't cancel each other out or sound "off". They have clearer, more consistent response, and the whole fretboard is brought into greater sonic alignment for a more musical playing/listening experience. Guitars with V-Class bracing are easier to tune, the pitch sounds purer and more solid and electronic tuners can more easily locate notes for quick, precise tuning. Has the Taylor Pickup system
