Product Description
The Legacy 815e represents Taylor's singular Jumbo offering—a non-cutaway acoustic-electric that honors Bob Taylor's foundational designs while incorporating contemporary refinements. Constructed with solid Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top, this full-bodied instrument delivers commanding projection and tonal depth. The traditional X-bracing pattern produces a warm, textured voice characterized by articulate trebles, resonant lows, and a subtle midrange scoop that allows overtones to bloom naturally. A modern neck profile ensures comfortable playability and effortless fretting, while vintage appointments like the mustache bridge and straight-ear peghead reinforce its heritage character. Built for players seeking substantial acoustic presence with integrated amplification.
