A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.

Mahogany
Mahogany is known for its meaty midrange character, featuring a strong fundamental focus often described as “punchy,”
“woody,” or “dry,” because it doesn’t produce a lot of ringing overtones. Mahogany’s earthy voice has been featured on many roots music recordings over the years.

Expression System®
2The Taylor Expression System® 2 (ES2) is a revolutionary pickup design that delivers the latest in Taylor’s
ongoing innovation in acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the Expression System 2 is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, which features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed “professional audio”-grade preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. On stage through a PA, plugged into your favorite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar.
