Taylor AD22e American Dream Grand Concert, Mahogany Top Shaded Edgeburst Finish Acoustic Guitar
The Taylor AD22e American Dream Grand Concert is an acoustic guitar that boasts a Mahogany Top with a Shaded Edgeburst Finish. This exceptional instrument boasts a Grand Concert body style with a mahogany top and v-class bracing, granting comfortable playability and a transparent, well-defined tonality.
Setting itself apart from the AD21e, the AD22e is a compact but full-size guitar that incorporates V-Class bracing, augmenting volume, sustain, and tonal purity across the neck. The fusion of Sapele and Neo-Tropical Mahogany in the AD22e’s construction results in a pronounced midrange emphasis, making it especially fitting for aficionados who seek a compact, full-sized guitar experience. The AD22e sits between the AD21e and larger Grand Pacific AD27e in size and output.
This instrument showcases outstanding craftsmanship, featuring beveled body edges, a tasteful single-ring maple/black/maple rosette, and elegant 4mm dot inlays fashioned from Italian acrylic. Taylor’s nickel tuners allow precise tuning, while the striking faux firestripe pickguard adds visual depth. The smoked Eucalyptus fingerboard further elevates the guitar’s aesthetic appeal.
Designed with a Grand Theater body shape and a 24.875-inch scale length, the AD22e ensures comfortable playability for a variety of hand sizes and techniques. The instrument’s 1.75-inch nut width caters to a diverse range of finger placements and playing styles.
Outfitted with the Taylor ES2 electronics system, the AD22e provides control over volume, bass, and treble, enabling guitarists to fine-tune their sound for any performance scenario. The shaded edgeburst matte finish of the AD22e not only pays homage to the vintage inspiration of mahogany-topped guitars but also enhances the instrument’s visual allure by extending to the back, sides, top, and neck heel, seamlessly blending aesthetic choices from the past with modern innovation. For secure storage and transportation, the AD22e includes a durable brown AeroCase.Â
