Standard Builder's Edition Collection

Each guitar in the Builder’s Edition family represents the peak of Taylor’s design philosophy: comfortable, inviting guitars with rich, robust tone and stunning aesthetics.

Features

Our game-changing internal voicing architecture balances rigidity and flexibility, allowing the top to vibrate in a way that increases volume and sustain while improving pitch accuracy all the way up the neck. Next Generation models feature a scalloped variant that yields greater warmth and low-end presence.

A product of Taylor’s exceptional woodworking craftsmanship, the beveled armrest provides a smooth surface for your strumming arm that improves playing comfort and alleviates arm fatigue so that every note and chord sounds just right.

This contoured version of the Venetian cutaway lets you anchor your fretting hand comfortably even when playing the highest frets, reducing hand strain and making it easy to express each note with precision.

A touch made possible by signature Taylor craftsmanship, the rolled body and fretboard edges on Builder’s Edition guitars creates an even more intimate, inviting feel for the player, improving comfort and helping you sound your best with every note.

This refined take on the classic Taylor bridge shape sports smoothly contoured edges that make for a soft, accommodating feel for your strumming hand.
