The Legacy 810e brings back the sound, look and feel of Taylor's original acoustic-electric Dreadnought, with a few modern updates. Indian rosewood back and sides and a Sitka spruce top sit on traditional X-bracing, and Taylor voices it big and warm, with sparkle on top and plenty of overtone.
The neck uses Taylor's modern profile for relaxed fretting and easy adjustment, and the body is a slightly later version of the Dreadnought shape, still from Taylor's early years. An LR Baggs Element VTC pickup sits under the saddle, with its controls just inside the soundhole, and the guitar is strung with mediums (.013 to .056).
The appointments follow the early 800 Series: white binding, a three-ring green abalone rosette, Large Diamond inlays in mother-of-pearl, a tortoise pickguard and ebony bridge pins dotted with green abalone, all in gloss on the body and neck.
The Legacy 815e is the same woods and appointments in a Jumbo, and the Legacy 914ce takes the Legacy approach to a cutaway Grand Auditorium with an Engelmann spruce top.
