The mahogany with a torrefied spruce top and the deeper Grand Pacific body create a powerful, earthy sound that makes an immediate impression.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnder the leadership of Andy Powers, Taylor has built a beautiful new series of guitars with the Gold Label Collection. Packed with innovations, the Gold Label Series sounds like a true vintage guitar and is rightfully 'Born With an Old Soul'!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaylor introduced the Gold Label Collection in early 2025 as a radically new direction for the brand. While Taylor was long known for its bright, modern sound, Andy Powers wanted to return to the warm, robust sounds of traditional acoustic guitars with this series. The Grand Pacific body was redesigned specifically for the Gold Label with a 3\/8 inch deeper chest, resulting in more \"lung capacity\" and richer resonance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe combination of mahogany body and torrefied Sitka spruce top produces a sound that is both powerful and musical. The mahogany brings warmth and focus, while the torrefied spruce provides an open, mature tone reminiscent of vintage instruments. The fanned V-Class bracing and the unique Action Control Neck make this guitar not only a joy to listen to, but also to play. The Standard Carve neck profile fits comfortably in the hand, and thanks to the innovative neck system, you can easily adjust the string spacing to suit your playing style.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis 2025 Taylor features multiple dings on the top, along with several smaller dings on the back and sides. The guitar is therefore already broken in and ready to take to the stage! With an exclusive \"British Cocoa\" hardshell case and a new aesthetic that combines classic influences with modern sophistication, the Gold Label Collection positions itself as a premium option in the Taylor lineup.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis instrument has been carefully inspected for originality, condition and playability, then set up to our Gold Standard by a luthier. We make sure it arrives in your hands exactly as it should: sounding its best, playing effortlessly and ready to be enjoyed from the very first note.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TFOA","offers":[{"title":"1208155025","offer_id":53603726590299,"sku":"109125-1208155025","price":2299.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0960\/6607\/7019\/files\/TaylorGoldLabel517eMahoganyBlacktop2025-2.jpg?v=1785147945","url":"https:\/\/www.tfoa.eu\/products\/taylor-gold-label-517e-mahogany-blacktop-2025","provider":"TFOA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
