Taylor 722ce Electro Acoustic, Hawaiian Koa

Full Description

Select-Grade Hawaiian Koa

Stunning natural beauty. This rare, tropical tonewood elevates the 722ce's alluring visuals that little bit more. Showcasing a gorgeous grain pattern and pronounced midrange focus, it's the perfect match for the auditorium body shape. Producing rich lows, punchy focussed mids and glistening highs, you'll be rewarded with developed harmonics in every style or genre you play. Even better, the more you play, the more the warmth, chime and sweetness of the Hawaiian Koa will open up.

V-braced Grand Concert body

Play with freedom. Play with precision. The grand concert body shape makes for a compact, nimble feel and a bright voice. It's a slimmer acoustic shape that excels at fingerpicking styles thanks to its shorter scale length and lighter string tension. Together with its smaller sonic footprint it will fit cleanly into a mix, so for both studio and stage work, the 722ce is superb.

This shape is underpinned by Taylor's revolutionary V-class bracing, causing your acoustics to project far and wide. It allows your soundboard to flex naturally while maintaining rigidity in the centre, leading to an enhanced sustain and detail all over the fretboard. Not only that, but it creates a more orderly response from the soundboard, letting every note sound off with maximum character.

Taylor level playability

Comfort, style, and ease. Taylor want your most expressive playing to shine out on the 722ce, so they've equipped it with a thin profiled neck and an ebony fretboard that'll truly bring out your best. Supremely smooth, the ebony board is a delight to play on, welcoming every style imaginable. The sleek surface makes zooming around the fretboard in fast fingerpicking styles a breeze. Not only that, but it's complemented by an easy-to-hold thin profile and low string action, letting you play for hours without a hint of cramp.

Express yourself with the preamp

Acoustic innovation. Delivering your acoustic sound with astounding accuracy, the Expression System 2 electronics allow you to capture the full dynamic range of your instrument when connected to an amplifier. Featuring an under-saddle pickup with three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors, it produces exceptional tone and responsiveness. Fit for even the most demanding professionals, it will convey a faithful, genuine voice in any situation, through PAs, amps or even recording software!
