Taylor Academy 10e acoustic guitar focused on playing comfort
With the Taylor Academy 10e, the focus is on easy playing without unnecessary extras. This acoustic guitar from the Academy series was designed as a very simple but very good-sounding guitar, without binding or decorative details and with clear attention to comfort.
The scale length, meaning the vibrating string length, is about 63 cm, which is slightly shorter than normal. That lowers the string tension a little and makes the guitar easier to play. The standard strings are also slightly thinner than usual, adding to the accessible feel.
Construction of the Taylor Academy 10e
The Taylor Academy 10e has a solid spruce top with laminated sapele back and sides. That combination forms the basis of its sound and matches the concept behind the Academy series: kept simple, but good sounding.
A notable detail is the rounded edge on the body, allowing your arm to rest more comfortably while playing. If you want personal advice on an acoustic guitar that feels comfortable in the hands, Magna Music can help with players on the team.
Made for longer playing sessions
Everything about this Taylor is aimed at ease of playing for the guitarist. If you practice a lot, take lessons or want an acoustic guitar that feels less stiff, you will notice the benefit of the shorter scale length, the thinner strings and the comfortable armrest.
The finish is natural, which fits well with the understated design of this Taylor Academy 10e.
