The Taylor DCSM Dan Crary Signature Model (2000) is a masterfully crafted dreadnought designed in collaboration with the legendary flatpicking guitarist Dan Crary.
The guitar is in excellent condition with just a bit of fret wear and a light finish imperfection at the neck heel to keep it from being Mint. This guitar stomps everything Taylor with huge tone.
Built with premium tonewoods and Taylor’s renowned craftsmanship, this signature model delivers outstanding projection, articulate note separation, and the dynamic headroom needed for powerful flatpicking and expressive fingerstyle playing.
Features include a solid spruce top, rich rosewood back and sides, and a sleek mahogany neck paired with an ebony fingerboard. The DCSM offers a balanced tonal range, making it an excellent choice for players who want a guitar that excels both on stage and in the studio. Its 2000 build year highlights Taylor’s golden era of U.S. craftsmanship, ensuring this instrument is as collectible as it is sonically inspiring.
Whether you’re a fan of Dan Crary’s iconic playing style or simply seeking a top-tier Taylor dreadnought, the DCSM stands out as a professional instrument built for serious musicians.
