Bob Taylor’s Big-Voice Legacy, Built For Modern Players

Bob’s legacy dreadnought is right here. The Legacy 810e takes the spirit of Taylor’s original 1975 designs and turns it into a modern acoustic-electric that feels effortless in the hands and throws out a huge, inspiring voice every time you hit a chord.

Sitka Spruce And Rosewood For Bloom, Punch, And Sparkle

Classic Sitka spruce on top and Indian rosewood back and sides is the sound of big, blooming acoustic tone. You get that piano-like low end, clear top, and rich overtones that hang in the air instead of dying off when you dig in.

X-bracing with a Relief Rout lets the top move and breathe, so this dread projects hard without getting muddy. Strum it with authority and it roars, back off with a lighter touch and it answers with warm, articulate nuance that flatpickers, singer-songwriters, and worship players will all appreciate.

Modern Taylor Neck, Vintage 800 Series Attitude

The neo-tropical mahogany neck with Taylor’s modern profile sits right in the comfort zone. Chords feel relaxed, leads stay clean, and you can play long sets without fighting excess neck girth or fatigue.

White binding, the green abalone 3-ring rosette, and mother-of-pearl Large Diamond inlays pull straight from early 800 Series vibes. It looks classy and familiar, like a guitar that has already seen a lot of stages, but it is brand new and ready to write its first chapter with you.

Stage-Ready LR Baggs Element VTC Electronics

This Legacy 810e skips the usual built-in system in favor of an LR Baggs Element VTC undersaddle pickup. It delivers a natural, musical translation of the guitar’s acoustic voice, so what you hear in your lap is what the audience hears in the mix.

Soundhole-mounted controls keep everything discreet and intuitive. Reach inside, tweak your level and tone, and you are dialed in without a big plastic box cut into the side of your guitar.

Thoughtful Details, Real-World Reliability

The 2-piece no wedge back keeps the look clean and elegant while the full gloss finish top, back, and sides gives it that stage-worthy shine. At around 5 pounds it feels solid but never like an anchor, whether you are standing with a strap or sitting in the studio.

West African Crelicam ebony for the fingerboard and bridge gives you a smooth, fast feel and rock-solid intonation. Ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots, a tortoise-style pickguard, and nickel Taylor tuners finish it off with a tasteful, high-end look that is all function and zero fluff.

Dialed In, Documented, And Ready To Ship

This specific guitar is serial number 1203045023, and the photos you see are of this exact instrument. It has been inspected three times in our Evansville shop, given a full Player-Perfect setup, and strung with D’Addario XS coated phosphor bronze mediums so it is ready for the stage, studio, or living room the second you crack the case.

You are getting our price match guarantee, free 2-3 day shipping, and a 72-Hour Love-It Guarantee so you can hear how it reacts in your room, with your touch, and through your rig. Only one like this is in stock, so if it is hitting that sweet spot for you, this is the time to jump.

The Lowdown

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

The Legacy 810e leans into Taylor history in a big way. You get classic Sitka spruce and Indian rosewood, traditional X-bracing with a Relief Rout, and appointments that echo early 800 Series guitars like white binding, a green abalone 3-ring rosette, and Large Diamond inlays. On top of that, the LR Baggs Element VTC pickup gives it a different plugged-in voice than Taylor’s usual systems, so it feels like a true “heritage” model that is still built to be played hard in modern settings.
It honestly does both really well. As a dreadnought, it naturally loves big, open strumming and flatpicking, with plenty of low-end authority and headroom. But the X-bracing and Sitka top are sensitive enough that fingerstyle players will still get touch-responsive dynamics and clarity. If your set moves from gentle verses to full-band choruses, this guitar will hang with you the whole way.
Absolutely. The Element VTC is a proven, workhorse undersaddle pickup that gives you a clear, natural acoustic sound with plenty of output. The soundhole-mounted controls make it easy to dial in your level and basic tone without cluttering up the side of the guitar. Plug straight into a good DI or acoustic amp and you are ready for church, the studio, or the next songwriter round.
If you are coming from smaller bodies, you will notice the extra size and low-end presence, but Taylor’s ergonomics help a lot. The body is well-balanced at around 5 pounds, and the neck’s modern standard carve keeps the fretting hand relaxed. Give yourself a few sessions with it and most players find the feel very natural, especially when seated or on a good strap. The payoff is that huge, room-filling dreadnought voice.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 72-Hour Love-It Guarantee. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
If you order before 3 PM CST on a weekday, it ships the same day. We’ll get it into your hands fast with free, insured 2-3 day shipping.
