Taylor Koa K26ce Grand Symphony Acoustic Electric Guitar Shaded Edge Burst. Excellent Condition Does have some minor wear dings as shown in detailed last 2 pictures. Exactly as pictured Signed by: Bob Taylor on back of head. The Koa Series K26ce Grand Symphony Acoustic-Electric Guitar with a single cutaway features a Hawaiian koa back, sides and top. As you can see in the images above, the koa’s woodgrain gives it a darker, captivating beauty. Premium all-wood appointments, led by the Island Vine fretboard inlay, celebrate the wood’s natural appeal. This naturally aesthetic deliciousness is matched by a tone that blossoms over time, especially in the midrange. Its voice is bright and focused, with warm overtones that slowly emerge, adding sweetness and depth. And when you need to plug in, Taylor’s Expression System 2 will give you the clear boost you need. Comes with a Taylor Deluxe Hardshell Black case. Grand Symphony The Grand Symphony shape joined the line in 2006 and delivers a rich, powerful acoustic voice. Think of it as a Grand Auditorium with a turbo boost, thanks to expanded physical dimensions, including a slightly wider waist and a bigger lower bout. Strummers and pickers with a driving attack will love the fullness, volume and sustain. Yet for such a robust voice, the GS is also clear and responsive to fast picking runs or a light fingerstyle touch, so if you’re a dynamic player, this shape is a true contender. And the big voice doesn’t come at the expense of balance. The piano-like bass, meaty midrange, and thick, shimmering highs blend seamlessly. These traits also make the GS a great vehicle for 12-strings. If you like a lush, potent guitar tone that has the horsepower to compete with other acoustic cannons out there, the GS shape is a worthy choice. Hawaiian Koa A tropical hardwood, koa’s tone blends the midrange of mahogany with the top end of maple. Due to its density, a new koa guitar tends to start out sounding a little bright and tight, somewhat like maple. But the more a koa guitar is played, the more the sound opens up, expanding the midrange and rewarding the player with a richer, sweeter, more resonant tone. A common mistake is when a bright player buys a koa guitar in part for its visual beauty, finds it to be too bright, and doesn’t play it enough to allow the wood to warm up. CV with Relief Rout This version incorporates the relief rout and additional refinements, including subtle contouring differences in the scalloping. In general, guitars with CV bracing sound fuller and fatter without giving up articulation. They are also slightly louder. Taylor’s patented relief rout is a tone-enhancing voicing technique in which a groove is carved along the inside edges of the top. This groove is similar in function to the re-curve on a violin – it “loosens up” the edges of the top, generating extra flexibility without sacrificing structural integrity. The result is increased bass and volume with a balanced tone. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed “professional audio”-grade preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. On stage through a PA, plugged into your favorite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar. Number of Strings: 6. Back/Side Wood: Hawaiian Koa. Top Wood: Hawaiian Koa. Electronics: Expression System 2. Nut & Saddle: Bone. Bracing: CV Bracing with Relief Rout. Fretboard Inlay: Island Vine.

In fantastic condition and sounding incredible, this all solid wood Taylor 716ce has seen very little use since new in 2008. The finish is like new with only a couple of very minor lower bout dings (see photo). I cant detect even a bit of fret wear. The Taylor premium case still has plastic covering the brass plate. The action is very nice and it has new Elixir custom lights installed. This is the only 716ce I have seen with rosewood binding added to a very thin line of the normal ivoroid, which gives it an even warmer look. Photos have quite a few reflections that may look like flaws, but they are not. The finish is in very new condition and it is very difficult to get pix. One outdoor photo of the back is just to show how reflective the guitar is without scratches, etc. The rosewood/spruce cutaway 700 Series 716ce Grand Symphony Acoustic-Electric Guitar unleashes a potent all-around sound with deep bass, meaty midrange and equally thick trebles, delivering impressive balance across the tonal spectrum. Players with a dynamic picking or strumming attack will love the responsiveness to both a light and heavy touch. A warm Vintage Sunburst top and neck complement rosewood’s chocolate hues, while creamy thin line ivoroid with Indian Rosewood binding outlines the body, fretboard, headstock and soundhole, and also is used for the neo-traditional Heritage Dot fretboard inlays. A Venetian cutaway gives it a steeper slope on the treble-side of the fretboard with greater access as well. Taylor’s proprietary Expression System acoustic electronics deliver exceptional amplified tone in a reliable plug-and-play package. The Grand Symphony shape joined the Taylor line in 2006 and delivers a rich, powerful acoustic voice. Think of it as a Grand Auditorium with a turbo boost, thanks to expanded physical dimensions, including a slightly wider waist and a bigger lower bout. Strummers and pickers with a driving attack will love the fullness, volume and sustain. Yet for such a robust voice, the GS is also clear and responsive to fast picking runs or a light fingerstyle touch, so if you’re a dynamic player, this shape is a true contender.

These traits also make the GS a great vehicle for 12-Strings. If you like a lush, potent guitar tone that has the horsepower to compete with other acoustic cannons out there, the GS shape is a worthy choice. The 716ce features one of the most popular and traditional guitar woods of all time, rosewood, which takes the basic sonic thumbprint of mahogany (which has a strong midrange) and expands it in both directions. Rosewood sounds deeper in the Shape: Grand Symphony. Number of Strings: 6. Back/Side Wood: Indian Rosewood. Top Wood: Sitka Spruce. Cutaway: Venetian Body Depth: 4-5/8.

I bought this guitar brand new from Guitar Center just 8 months ago. This guitar has such a great vibe, and it is in pristine condition! It was made in 2014, but it was untouched for all of 2014. I bought it in Oct of 2015, and have played it lightly for about 8 months. It is THE BEST guitar you will ever own! Simply amazing, crisp, clear, beautiful sound. You will love it! Just a heads up. This guitar’s serial #: 1107254061. (Some Taylor guitars are made in Mexico, and are priced cheaper FYI). There is a great video on youtube which teaches you how to accurately read and understand a taylor serial number. How to Read Taylor Guitar Serial Numbers – When was my guitar made? The first video to pop up should help you out. Slightly bigger than Taylor’s Grand Auditorium body style, the Grand Symphony 816ce yields a powerful and rich sound without sacrificing bell-like articulation. It makes a potent strummer, and dynamic fingerstylists will enjoy the thick, full-bodied character of the notes. As part of Taylor’s 800 Series package for 2014, the GS will sound even richer with more low-end rumble. Premium appointments include maple binding and back strip, rosewood top edge trim, a rosewood pickguard, Taylor’s new Element fretboard inlay in mother-of-pearl, a marbled fretboard, and new Expression System 2 acoustic electronics. The guitar also features a Venetian cutaway for a steeper slope and easier access to the upper frets, and includes a Taylor deluxe hardshell case. Grand Symphony The Grand Symphony shape joined Taylor’s line in 2006 and delivers a rich, powerful acoustic voice. Think of it as a Grand Auditorium with a turbo boost, thanks to expanded physical dimensions, including a slightly wider waist and a bigger lower bout. Strummers and pickers with a driving attack will love the fullness, volume and sustain.

If you like a lush, potent guitar tone that has the horsepower to compete with other acoustic cannons out there, the GS shape is a worthy choice. Indian Rosewood The 816ce features one of the most popular and traditional guitar woods of all time, rosewood, which takes the basic sonic thumbprint of mahogany (which has a strong midrange) and expands it in both directions. Rosewood sounds deeper in the low end and brighter on the top end (one might describe the treble notes as zesty, sparkly or sizzly, with more articulation). If you look at its frequency range visually, rosewood would appear to be more scooped in the middle, yielding less midrange bloom than mahogany. Like mahogany, rosewood’s vintage heritage has helped firmly establish its acoustic legacy. It’s a great sound in part because we know that sound. In some music circles in which preserving the traditional sound helps bring a sense of authenticity to the music – certain strains of Americana, for example – rosewood has an iconic status. Also like mahogany, rosewood is a versatile tonewood, which has contributed to its popularity. One can fingerpick it, strum it and flatpick it. It’s very consistent, so players can usually rely on it to deliver. If you like a guitar with fuller low end and brighter treble (bluegrassers, for instance), rosewood will do the trick. Its high-end sizzle and clear articulation will benefit players with “dark hands”. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed “professional audio”-grade preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. On stage through a PA, plugged into your favorite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar.
