Taylor Academy 10e Limited Edition Acoustic Guitar Spruce/Koa

The Academy 10e LTD is built to inspire, offering an exceptional combination of comfort, tone, and premium craftsmanship at an accessible price point. At the heart of its rich, resonant sound is a solid torrefied spruce top, treated with Taylor’s unique roasting process to deliver a warm, mature voice that feels broken-in from the very first strum. This top also provides ample headroom, making it a reliable companion for dynamic strummers, flatpickers, and singer-songwriters alike. A carved armrest ensures a relaxed playing posture, especially during long sessions, while the slim-profile Taylor neck and 1-11/16 nut width offer smooth, effortless fretting that accommodates beginners and experienced players alike. Whether you're crafting melodies at home, jamming with friends, or performing live, the Academy 10e LTD supports your sound with confidence and clarity. With the built-in ES-B electronics system — complete with an easy-to-use digital tuner — you'll always be ready to plug in and perform. Packaged in a lightweight, soft gig bag for convenient travel, the Academy 10e LTD is as road-ready as it is stage-ready, delivering professional features with beginner-friendly ease.
