Taylor AD22e American Dream Grand Concert Acoustic-Electric Guitar Shaded Edge Burst

The Taylor AD22e American Dream Grand Concert acoustic-electric guitar is a premium instrument infused with attitude. Handcrafted in California, this solid urban sienna-colored Grand Concert combines high-end components with a rebellious streak, delivering professional-grade tone with eye-catching style. At the heart of the AD22e is Taylor’s patented V-Class bracing and ES2 electronics, which provide unparalleled acoustic sound and plugged-in performance. Paired with a sleek gig bag for portability, the AD22e American Dream is ideal for singer-songwriters and performers wanting to stand out on stage.

V-Class Bracing Unlocks the Guitar’s True Voice

Taylor’s revolutionary V-Class bracing is a signature design that maximizes volume and sustain while enhancing clarity and projection. Strategically placed, V-Class bracing enables the top to freely vibrate for a bold, complex tone with rich overtones. The result is a guitar that rings out with power, depth and nuance whether strumming chords or fingerpicking melodies.

ES2 Pickup System Delivers Studio-Quality Plugged-in Performance

On stage or in the studio, the ES2 pickup system faithfully amplifies the AD22e’s acoustic properties. Featuring three uniquely positioned pickup sensors, ES2 electronics capture an extended range of tonal nuance and dynamics. Paired with Taylor’s custom preamp, the ES2 system produces a clear, balanced tone when plugged into an amp or PA system. Volume, treble and bass controls allow for quick tonal adjustments on the fly.

Slim, Comfortable Neck Inspires Creativity

The AD22e features a slender mahogany neck with an ebony fretboard, a combination that yields a fast, smooth playing feel. A 24.86″ scale length provides comfortably spaced frets for effortless chord changes and single-note runs. Whether you prefer a pick or your fingers, the AD22e’s neck is designed to keep up with your playing.

Premium Gig Bag Included for Safe Transport

Taylor includes a deluxe gig bag to securely transport your AD22e between performances and recording sessions. Padded handles and straps make the gig bag comfortable to carry, while thick padding surrounds the guitar for maximum protection. A large front pocket provides extra storage for picks, straps, strings and other accessories.
