The Taylor 110ce-S at a glance

With the Taylor 110ce-S the US manufacturer presents its latest acoustic guitar of the 100 series, which brings a breath of fresh air to the popular series with new features. Thus, the dreadnought model comes with its classic solid top made of Sitka spruce, but this time with a laminated body made of Sapele. The characteristic sound properties of the tonewoods result in a powerful acoustic sound for expressive vocal accompaniment as well as virtuoso solo playing. For live enthusiasts to get their money's worth, the guitar is equipped with the in-house Expression System 2 for professionally amplified playing and comes in a well-padded gig bag which makes storage and transport safe and uncomplicated.

Dreadnought - the traditional design

The designation dreadnought goes back to the construction of a warship from the 20th century and is based on the wedge-shaped design with a less pronounced top. Due to its expansive soundbox, the dreadnought guitar produces a very assertive sound that enjoys great popularity among musicians. In addition, the Taylor Dreadnought convinces with its perfectly balanced sound with strong basses and brilliant trebles as well as its lightning-fast response. Thus, this versatile instrument is suitable for both powerful strumming and flatpicking, which makes it a true all-rounder.

Taylor - The epitome of fine quality

As one of the largest guitar manufacturers, Taylor is truly an authority in the production of first-class instruments. Thus, professional manufacturing by skilled crafts men results in the very finest products for life, whose value is always maintained - or even increased! This is due in equal part to exquisite tonewoods, which do not warp due to long storage and selected quality and as a result can hardly be surpassed in terms of high quality. Only spruce, mahogany, cedar or Koa of proven quality are used for the tops. By the way, careful production in combination with the best materials does not only apply to guitars. Guitar bags and all accessories are also of first-class quality. Finally, a conscientious final inspection does not let even the smallest defects pass and ensures absolutely flawless guitars even before shipment.

And that's not all: Taylor also attaches great importance to environmentally conscious actions.

Ebony & Koa: Sustainability at Taylor Guitars.

Uncontrolled clearing of forests and overexploitation lead to massively endangered wood species that can no longer regenerate due to the high pace of extraction. These include ebony and koa in particular, whose dwindling stocks and the resulting ecological problems have prompted a rethink at Taylor Guitars.

Siglo Tonewoods Project

Koa acacia populations have also suffered severe losses over the last 20 years. Unsustainable forestry as well as overexploitation led to a decline that can only be stopped by proactive action and reforestation. Therefore, Taylor Guitars together with Pacific Rim Tonewoods founded the Siglo Tonewoods project, which aims to rebuild the Hawaiian virgin forest. This is a large cultivation area for koa acacia and other species, which allows the use of koa wood on a controlled scale.
