Description

This twelve string is a wonderful guitar built by Bob Taylor himself in Lemon Grove, California, during Taylor's American Dream era. Made famous on the "Rust Never Sleeps" Neil Young tour, this Taylor acoustic is an excellent guitar. The jumbo body pairs well with the 12 string chime. It offers a balance and clarity that opens with age that comes with a 1977 Taylor. It is ready to impress with easy playability and wonderful tone. It's a true piece of Taylor Guitar history.

Comes with its original hard case. Fishman Matrix pickup added in the 90s.
