Description
1996 Taylor 710 BRZ Natural Acoustic Guitar, Serial #961202126.1996 Taylor 710BRZ Acoustic Guitar in Natural finish. This is a custom-built model featuring a stunning 3-piece Brazilian rosewood back, Brazilian rosewood sides, and a select-grade Engelmann spruce top. The guitar is in unplayed condition and presents as new, with no visible signs of wear or use.
Original hard case included. Condition: Excellent.
This custom 710BRZ showcases Taylor's exceptional craftsmanship during the mid-1990s and features one of the most sought-after tonewood combinations in acoustic guitar construction. Brazilian rosewood, prized for its rich overtones and powerful projection, is paired with a responsive Engelmann spruce top to deliver a balanced, articulate voice with both warmth and clarity. The 3-piece back adds a distinctive visual element while enhancing tonal complexity. As a custom build from this era-before Brazilian rosewood became highly restricted-this guitar is not only a superb instrument but also a highly collectible piece.
