DESCRIPTION

Introducing the Taylor AD22e American Dream Grand Concert acoustic-electric guitar, a versatile instrument that effortlessly blends top-of-the-line performance with practicality. Taking inspiration from the birthplace of Taylor Guitars in 1974, the AD22e boasts a solid-wood construction, V-Class bracing, and ES2 electronics to deliver natural acoustic tone when plugged in.

Featuring Taylor's popular Grand Concert body shape, this American Dream model has a unique sound and comfortable design, making it suitable for all musical situations. With a slightly smaller size than the Grand Auditorium, the AD22e produces controlled overtones, making it perfect for live performances or recording. The compact size and slight spacing between the frets create a slinky "handfeel," making fretting easier. Additionally, Taylor's Grand Concert guitars are designed to be easy to play and have a surprising amount of tonal power and midrange warmth. The AeroCase included protects your guitar and makes it easy to transport.

Taylor's ES2 pickup design is revolutionary, delivering the latest in acoustic guitar amplification technology. Unlike other pickups, the Expression System 2 features three individually calibrated pickup sensors that are uniquely positioned behind the saddle. This design allows for a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before when playing plugged in. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness.

Whether on stage through a PA, plugged into your favorite amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar, making it the perfect choice for guitarists of all skill levels.
