Taylor Legacy Series 855e

The 12-string Taylor Jumbo that makes fifty years of craftsmanship audible

The Taylor Legacy Series 855e is a special reissue for players who want to feel Taylor's rich history in their hands. The combination of Indian Rosewood and Sitka Spruce harks back to the instruments with which Taylor built its reputation, while the 12-string Jumbo gives this classic a distinct presence.

The sound is broad, clear, and rich in overtones. The Sitka Spruce top provides an immediate attack and great detail, while Indian Rosewood adds depth and warmth to the low end. Thanks to the large Jumbo body, this Taylor effortlessly fills a room, from powerful chords to carefully constructed fingerstyle parts. The LR Baggs Element VTC pickup also naturally translates these acoustic qualities to an amplified setting.

The 855e features a mahogany neck with a West African Crelicam Ebony fretboard, a 1-7/8 inch nut, and a 25-1/2 inch scale length. The characteristic Moustache bridge, the glossy finish, and the included D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light 12-string strings underscore its vintage-inspired character. The luxurious Taylor hardshell case completes the set.

The Taylor Legacy Series 855e is made for guitarists seeking an impressive 12-string sound with a clear historical face and the reliability of a modern Taylor.
