If you are just starting out on guitar, Taylor's Academy Series acoustic guitars are the perfect instrument to get you up and running, offering you genuine Taylor quality at an accessible price. Problems like high action, poor intonation, and generally inferior tone and playability are the cause of many beginners giving up after a short time. Taylor's Academy series addresses these issues in a guitar that plays comfortably and effortlessly. Nylon strings are great for beginners because their lower string tension is much easier on the fingertips and the unique armrest that reduces fatigue during practice. With the superb tonewood combination of a solid spruce top and sapele back and sides, and unmatched Taylor build quality, you won't get a better beginner guitar at this price point. For when you are ready to move into the stage, the Taylor ES2 Expression system will faithfully reproduce the guitar's voice when plugged in.
