The Taylor Gold Label 717e Grand Pacific isn't just another acoustic guitar; it's a complete sonic masterpiece, ready to resonate in your hands. Built with Andy Powers' revolutionary fanned V-class bracing and a deeper 5-inch body, this instrument boasts the “lung capacity” to project louder and deliver richer tones than you ever imagined possible.
Whether you're gently strumming in your living room or commanding a concert hall stage, prepare for a sound that fills rooms and captures hearts.
Redefining the Acoustic Experience
This isn't your typical dreadnought experience. The Grand Pacific's innovative architecture creates exceptional low-end expansiveness that'll make your bass notes rumble with authority, while the enhanced projection ensures every nuance of your playing cuts through the mix.
Andy Powers designed this instrument to be your creative companion — one that responds to your touch with warmth, power, and tonal richness that makes every performance feel immersive and emotionally connected.
Advanced Fanned V-Class Bracing: Andy Powers' groundbreaking bracing system doesn't just support the guitar top — it actively enhances tone production, creating more volume and sustain while maintaining perfect intonation across the entire fretboard.
Deeper Body Construction: The 5-inch body depth at the soundhole gives this guitar significantly more internal air space, resulting in that coveted "bigger" sound that typically requires much larger instruments.
Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top: This heat-treated spruce top delivers the aged, opened-up tone of a vintage guitar right out of the case, with enhanced responsiveness that makes even light playing sing with clarity.
Indian Rosewood Back & Sides: Premium Indian rosewood provides rich harmonic complexity and strong fundamental tones that complement the spruce top's brightness with warm, woody depth.
Inspiration at Your Fingertips
The Gold Label 717e proves that power doesn't have to come at the expense of comfort. This guitar plays as beautifully as it sounds, with thoughtful design elements that make extended playing sessions a joy rather than a workout.
Long Tenon Neck Joint: This traditional construction method creates superior sustain and resonance transfer between the neck and body, while the adjustable action control lets you customize the setup to match your playing style perfectly.
West African Ebony Fretboard: The dense, smooth ebony fretboard provides excellent note clarity and a luxurious feel under your fingers, while the binding adds both beauty and structural integrity.
Tropical Mahogany Neck: The mahogany neck offers stability and warmth, with a comfortable profile that feels familiar whether you're fingerpicking delicate passages or strumming powerful chords.
Design Excellence Meets Modern Innovation
The Gold Label 717e doesn't just sound professional — it looks the part too, with distinctive design elements that set it apart from standard production guitars.
LR Baggs VTC Active Electronics: When you need to plug in, the VTC system delivers natural acoustic tone through any amplification system, with intuitive controls that work seamlessly whether you're recording or performing live.
Gold Label Collection Details: Andy's modified headstock shape, script-style Taylor logo inlay, and Honduran rosewood Curve Wing bridge create visual distinction that matches the guitar's exceptional performance capabilities.
Premium Aesthetic Elements: The full-gloss body finish, crest-style fretboard inlays, cream binding, and firestripe pickguard combine refined elegance with unmistakable Taylor craftsmanship.
Your Gateway to Deeper Musical Expression
The Taylor Gold Label 717e Grand Pacific represents more than exceptional craftsmanship — it's an invitation to explore new depths in your musical journey. This guitar rewards both gentle introspection and powerful expression, adapting to your creative vision while inspiring you to push beyond your current boundaries. Complete with a beautiful Taylor deluxe hard-shell case in British Cocoa, it's ready to become your trusted companion for years of musical exploration.
