Taylor AC-10E Academy Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Sitka Spruce/Sapele, w/ Gig Bag

The Academy 10e with Taylor's ES-B electronics comes out of the gig bag stage-ready. Comfort takes center stage, and this model's design choices emphasize the optimal playing experience for beginners and seasoned pros alike. An ergonomic armrest on the edge of the Dreadnought body and the short scale length (24-7/8") offer a seamless playing feel, with a slinky response that's perfect for new players.

More experienced players will appreciate the solid spruce top, which delivers dramatic projection and a warm, balanced tone that make the Academy 10e a perfect choice for working musicians as well as students. Layered sapele back and sides help reinforce the guitar and protect it from damage from humidity and temperature changes, and the built-in digital tuner means you never have to worry about forgetting your tuner at home.

All told, the Academy 10e is a perfect distillation of Taylor quality into a budget-friendly form.
