This 2009 David Taylor Brescia is decked out with striking Curly Mahogany sides and back, contrasting Ebony body binding, and a lovely Port Orford Cedar top. Port Orford has the look of Spruce but with a gorgeous warm tone. Together with the Mahogany body, it's quick responding and full. The 7-piece Mahogany neck, with its slim profile, and the contrasting back plate are especially attractive. There's lots of great music to be made with this one, but it excels for fingerstyle with its great articulation across the registers, and warm, woody sustain.
David Taylor is very quickly making a name for himself by producing top quality guitars with fit, finish and tone to rival some of the best. With artists like Muriel Anderson playing his instruments the word is getting out. This Brescia has simple appointments that let the elegant figured Mahogany shine. Topped with Port Orford Cedar you get the look of Spruce but the warm, rich voice of Cedar. This one is full and alive. 
This one is for those acoustic players who want a sleek, fast neck with low action, but don't want to sacrifice tone and volume. I rarely see a guitar with a set up like this that I can play comfortably, but this one was a pleasure to play. Nice warm tone with excellent playability. - Accessories
