Brand New Taylor Limited 50th Anniversary 217e-SB Plus Tobacco Sunburst Top
Taylor Guitars is turning 50 in 2024! Who could have predicted that a small guitar shop started by Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug back in ’74 would grow into an innovative industry leader!
The truth is that Taylor would never have gotten a foothold in the industry without the support of dealers who believed in our guitars and helped spread awareness among customers. Stores like yours will always be valued partners in our success.
On to the guitars. Like other milestone anniversary years, we’ve designed some exciting commemorative limited edition models for 2024. We plan to roll these out in several waves throughout our 50th year — ultimately more than a dozen models across a full range of price points, ranging from the Presentation Series to the GS Mini.
All 50th Anniversary models will share two signature touches to make them identifiable:
- A commemorative 50th Anniversary label inside each guitar
- Ebony bridge pins featuring gold acrylic dots
