The Academy 10e LTD blends vibrant tone with Hawaiian koa's seductive visual appeal in our signature, easy-playing Dreadnought shape. Its back and sides, crafted from layered AA-grade figured Hawaiian koa, boast dramatic organic figuring, making this limited-edition guitar one of the most visually striking Academy models we've ever produced. Its torrefied spruce top, treated with our proprietary roasting process, offers a warm, played-in sound right out of the box along with plenty of headroom for strummers and flatpickers. A carved armrest provides exceptional comfort, while a slim Taylor neck and 1-11/16" nut width make fretting effortless for players of all levels. Whether you're writing your next song at home, leading a jam session, or performing on stage, the Academy 10e LTD delivers premium sound and playability at a friendly price. Equipped with an onboard ES-B pickup featuring a built-in digital tuner, this model ships in a soft gig bag.
