[PREORDER] Taylor 316ce Baritone 50th Anniversary Grand Symphony Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Shaded Edgeburst

Ideal for players who want to explore new sonic territory, singers with lower vocal ranges, or musicians who enjoy a detuned acoustic sound, baritone guitars offer rich, deep tones that bridge the gap between standard and bass guitars. Taylor has a history of crafting innovative baritone guitars, and the 50th Anniversary 316ce Baritone-6 LTD continues that tradition. This gloss-finished cutaway Grand Symphony features lower B tuning and a 27” scale length. Its slender neck with normal string tension ensures a familiar, finger-friendly Taylor playing experience.

Solid sapele back and sides are paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top to produce deep lows, clear highs, and a full, meaty midrange, with an added touch of played-in warmth. Our special baritone bracing pattern channels a powerful bass response while maintaining clarity and balance across the frequency spectrum. Visual highlights include Gemstone inlays, a firestripe pickguard, black and white edge trim, and a full-guitar shaded edgeburst. Commemorating Taylor’s 50th anniversary, this limited-edition acoustic-electric also features Taylor gold tuners, gold-dotted ebony bridge pins, and a celebratory interior label. It ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.
