Founded in 1974 by Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, Taylor Guitars has grown rapidly since the 2000s thanks to its innovative ideas, high technical skill, and sophisticated marketing. Now a top acoustic brand worldwide, it enjoys strong support from a wide range of users, from general consumers to professional musicians. This instrument is a Grand Symphony (GS) size, which is positioned as an intermediate size among Taylor's original shapes. It is a used 2014 "316ce ES1". It features a spruce top, sapele sides and back, mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard and bridge, original tuners, original black pickguard, Venetian cutaway, built-in Expression Pickup System 1 (ES1), gloss top finish, and matte finish on the sides, back, and neck. This instrument is a Grand Symphony (GS) size, which is positioned as an intermediate size among Taylor's original shapes. It features the familiar thin neck, which makes it easy to play intricate phrases and has a comfortable grip. It also has a cutaway, making it easy to play even in the higher positions. Sapele wood offers a well-balanced sound characterized by its bright and crisp tone. The solid yet not-too-heavy bass, characteristic of the Grand Symphony, is perfectly matched with the bright, sparkling tone unique to sapele wood. It produces a refreshing and brilliant sound typical of acoustic guitars, making it a pleasure to play. When played with fingers, it produces a slightly rounder, softer, and gentler tone, revealing a different side to the instrument, which is also interesting. You can choose the sound that suits you best. The guitar is equipped with an ES1 pickup. The ES1 pickup system consists of a magnetic pickup embedded under the end of the fretboard and a body sensor attached to the top. Even when outputting via line, it produces a natural sound, with a different resonance than the current ES2 pickup. The controls are the familiar simple configuration of Volume, Bass, and Treble. Operation is easy, and sound shaping is simple. The only drawback is a very small dent on the lower part of the body top. Otherwise, there are only minor scratches that are slightly visible when held up to the light, making this instrument in excellent condition. This is a guitar we highly recommend for anyone looking for a serious guitar for home use or a reliable companion for stage performances. It comes with an original hard case.
