Product Description

The AD21e is a small-sized/travel guitar serving up a fresh look and feel with its all-Mahogany construction and rootsy musical character. Sonically, you can expect a woody mid-range with a strong focus on the fundamental note and a balanced attack, which is all thanks to Mahogany’s natural compression effect, especially as a top material.

Player-Friendly Design

The ergonomic body shape includes chambered edges, while the comfortable 24-1/8" scale length provides a relaxed feel that makes fretting chords and bending notes easy on the fingers. The body of the guitar is based on a scaled-down GT body shape, making it lightweight, and easy to hold and play.

Expression System 2

To meet the demands of modern musicians, the Taylor AD21e comes equipped with Taylor's Expression System 2 (ES2). This revolutionary design combines a patented behind-the-saddle pickup, which features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated sensors, with Taylor’s custom-designed "professional audio"-grade preamp. On stage through a PA, plugged into your favourite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software — the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of the GTe Mahogany guitar.

Included AeroCase

The AD21e comes with Taylor's popular AeroCase; offering sturdy protection at an exceptionally lightweight. It's the perfect hybrid gigbag/case that allows you to easily transport the instrument to all of your musical performances!

Mr Steven Garside4th Apr 2023

If there is one thing I want in an acoustic it's a smooth, mellow but articulate tone. I hate brash, bright sounding acoustics more than I can convey in words. Taylor are known for bright sounding guitars - so I never thought I would get on with one. But this is wonderful. For my money, this GTE mahogany has a sweeter tone than Martin's equivalent 00 15 series all-mahogany. This has a far nicer strummed voice. The Martin sounds scratchy by comparison and less well-balanced. For a small guitar it isn't boxy sounding at all. Another big bonus over the Martin (which I do like BTW) is its superior playability. It has a shorter scale, more rolled edges on the fretboard and the fretboard itself has more curve ( i.e. a lower radius). Would have preferred it without electronics, but that's no big deal. A winner is you are after playability, and a good open, strumming sound in a small guitar.
