agreed but its not a mahogany guitar

@@sooparticular it’s a mahogany top with sapele back and sides which sonically similar to mahogany but a little more articulate. The look is also very close. Taylor uses this tone wood a lot.

@@abdelouehebouldmohamed9039 yeah the crappy ones

Yeah, love the nickel strings on these mahogany guitars. Clear and warm.

By the way, the AD22e is also a much nicer looking guitar.

i thought he looked like wesley snipes?

i have the 322 with hog top sapele body from 2013. Before they changed the body wood to blackwood. So basically its the same?

@@bawanhardi9359 AD22 with v bracing it probably sounds more balanced

I've been watching a bunch of videos reviewing the 322e before stumbling on this one.. not sure if it's the wood difference or something else but I prefer the sound of the AD22e to the 322e's (at least the ones on KZfaq). Both the 322 and 324 sound muddled to me. The AD22e has everything the mahogany promises, punch, clarity, and balanced mids. Amazing how something so similar can be so different (and I'm really nerding out on these with high end headphones and listening to the same video demos over and over and over for what it's worth).

Cap

I think the ad22 has a 25 and a half in scale length so it's a not short scale

According to the spec sheet I looked up, it is 24-7/8"...

@@timnewman1172 you're correct sir. I did not do my due diligence.

@@MrHeliosoul come on Mark. Ya dropped the ball on the due diligence.

Maybe a large sound hole 000-18 VTS to compare with a D-18?

@Elyon Alone calm down killer...and if it hurts your shoulder hit the gym

For info u should try and see the all solid mahagony orangewoodmodel Price point quality for guitare made in Indonésia. Are superbe Hudson dread for 650 dollars for all solid model u cant find better certain Guys préfèr by Martin tag name for guitare in résin pls and l love so cynicle from Martin ritchlight eco concern neck lol better by all solid parlor or orchestra model or dread orangewood who sound good instead of name tag of expensive and arrogant company

ok pepe

Calm down. It's a selling point that matters to many consumers. No one is arguing that you can't get good quality elsewhere... I have a "Kentucky" mandolin made in China using North American tone woods and it sounds fantastic. Some of us appreciate knowing that the employees are working for 1st world wages and working conditions (Same reason I often buy Stronglight, Specialites, and Mavic bicycle components made in France). If the reviewers didn't mention where it was made there would be a bunch of people asking in the comments. Personally, I don't care if I have a USA made or Mexico made Taylor but it has a huge impact on the resell value whether you like it or not and that matters to people.

@@sooparticular are scare about fact this kind if peoples who Say that for guitare believed Apple its thé n'est iphone its the but what Can argue about when they know its made 100 💯 in China that fact

@@sooparticular its funny thé only thing u Say its related to m'y âge lol
