Taylor Doyle Dykes Signature Model 'Trans Orange' Acoustic Electric Guitar

Built for one of the world’s most expressive fingerstyle players, the Taylor Doyle Dykes Signature Model takes a classic early-2000s Taylor recipe and updates it with modern performance upgrades. You get a comfortable Grand Auditorium platform with a slightly thinner body depth for long sessions, plus a deep Florentine cutaway that makes upper-fret work feel effortless.

Tonally, the Sitka spruce top and figured big leaf maple back and sides deliver a crisp, piano-like voice with strong note separation and a fast response that suits intricate picking just as well as bold strumming. Taylor’s Claria under-saddle system adds an acoustic-authentic plugged-in sound with soundhole-mounted controls, while premium appointments like ivoroid binding, abalone detailing and the signature rose headstock inlay complete the package.
