Taylor has long been recognized for crafting baritone guitars that deliver rich, resonant tones and unmatched playability. Now, we’re excited to introduce two new limited-edition baritones to the 300 Series lineup: the 6-string 324ce Baritone-6 LTD and 8-string 324ce Baritone-8 LTD. Each model boasts an all-solid-mahogany cutaway Grand Auditorium body, yielding a focused, punchy tone with strong midrange fundamentals. Mahogany’s earthy voice complements the baritone’s naturally deep register, and our specialized baritone bracing pattern ensures a powerful bass response while promoting clarity and balance across the tonal spectrum.
Tuned a perfect fourth below standard tuning (B-E-A-D-F#-B), the 6-string 324ce Baritone-6 LTD is perfect for players with lower vocal ranges, fans of alternate tunings, or anyone looking to expand their sonic palette. The 8-string 324ce Baritone-8 LTD adds paired octave courses on the third and fourth strings, which produce a splash of 12-string shimmer without sounding jangly.
Thanks to a slender Taylor neck and a 27-inch scale length that preserves normal string tension, both guitars offer signature Taylor playability—making it easy for standard 6-string acoustic players to transition smoothly into baritone territory. From crafting walking basslines to doubling standard- tuned parts or leading solo performances, these guitars respond with warmth, depth and clarity.
Both models feature “Gemstone” fretboard and peghead inlays in Italian acrylic; a hand-sprayed shaded edgeburst top; a satin-finish body and neck; a firestripe pickguard, black body and fretboard binding; black/white/black top trim; a three-ring black rosette with black/white/black purfling; ebony bridge pins; and an Italian acrylic peghead logo. Equipped with Taylor black satin tuners and an onboard ES2 pickup, these inspiring new baritone guitars ship in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
