A solid torrefied spruce top sits over layered sapele back and sides, braced with Taylor's C-Class pattern, and the torrefaction process pre-ages that spruce top so it responds with the open, seasoned character of a guitar that's already been played in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat combination gives the 117e real low-end weight and a rounder attack than a standard Grand Auditorium — strummed chords bloom instead of snapping, and the sapele back and sides keep the midrange focused so the low end doesn't turn boomy under a heavy pick hand. It is a body built for rhythm players, singer-songwriters, and strummers who want a full, room-filling sound without stepping up to a full dreadnought's size and weight.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 1-11\/16-inch NuBone nut and Standard Carve neck profile keep the feel consistent with the rest of Taylor's 100 Series, so players moving between models don't have to relearn hand position, and the ebony fingerboard's inlay work stays understated rather than flashy. Taylor's Expression System 2 pickup carries that same round, full voice to the PA without needing heavy EQ correction. The 117e is a straightforward, dependable choice for the player who wants a genuinely different-sounding Taylor than the standard Grand Auditorium lineup — a strummer's guitar first, built to fill a room from the first chord.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhotos shown are manufacturer stock images — this unit's own in-house photos will replace them once photography is complete.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Acoustic Shoppe is an Authorized Taylor Premier Dealer and Gold Label Advantage Dealer.
