what a cool guitar !!! With the American Dream series of US-built acoustic guitars, Bob Taylor and Andy Powers have opened a new chapter in Taylor. Never before has it been this affordable to own an American-made Taylor guitar with class-leading features. The Grand Pacific AD27 slope-shoulder dreadnought is solid Taylor tonewoods (mahogany and sapele), each with minor cosmetic imperfections to honor the mature sound and workhorse aesthetic these early guitars are known for.
