Gear Review: Taylor Grand Pacific 717 and 517e Builder’s Editions | Acoustic Guitar

acousticguitar.com

The Taylor Builder's Edition 717e Grand Pacific Dreadnought is a vintage-inspired departure from Taylor's signature bright sound, offering a rich, balanced tone with a warm midrange. Its innovative V-Class bracing enhances sustain and tonal clarity, making it a standout for recording and live performance. While its full-bodied sound may not reach the projection of larger guitars, the 717e excels in delivering a creamy note overlap and comfortable playability, thanks to its compound neck carve. The subdued top-end may not suit players seeking a bright, zingy tone, but for those craving a more traditional, resonant acoustic experience, this Taylor is a triumph.

Taylor Grand Pacific Builder’s Edition 717 Review - Premier Guitar

premierguitar.com

The Taylor Builder's Edition 717e Grand Pacific guitar is a delightful departure from Taylor's traditional sound, offering a warm, vintage tone that might charm even those typically unmoved by the brand's signature brightness. Its innovative V-Class bracing delivers exceptional sustain and clarity, though its unique sound may not suit everyone's taste. The guitar boasts stellar craftsmanship, with a comfortable, rounded neck and a beautifully understated design. However, its $2,899 price tag is a significant investment, making it crucial for potential buyers to try before committing. Overall, it's a standout choice for those seeking a rich, retro acoustic experience.

Taylor Builder's Edition 717E Grand Pacific review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

A masterfully crafted dreadnought, the Taylor Builder's Edition 717e Grand Pacific impresses with its unique character and rich tonal palette, courtesy of Taylor’s innovative V-Class bracing. The guitar stands out for its nuanced sound, offering a balanced, less muddy lower midrange that appeals to those seeking a refined acoustic experience. While it may not satisfy traditionalists looking for the classic midrange boom, its earthy resonance and tonal clarity make it a standout for open-minded players. A superb stage-ready instrument, the 717e promises reliability and tonal excellence for years to come.
