Description
Taylor has a history of crafting baritone guitars, including 6- and 8-string models, and even a 9-string made for our 35th Anniversary in 2009. Designed to generate rich, deep tones that bridge the gap between standard and bass guitars, baritones like Taylor’s 50th Anniversary 316ce Baritone-6 LTD offer a unique sonic texture. Ideal for players with lower vocal ranges, or those who like a detuned sound, the 50th Anniversary 316ce Baritone-6 LTD can not only expand a musician’s tonal range—it can add a whole new color to their sonic palette!
A natural new extension of Taylor’s heritage, the 50th Anniversary 316ce Baritone-6 LTD features a lower B tuning and a 27-inch scale length. This limited-edition 6-string pairs solid sapele back and sides with a torrefied Sitka spruce top in a gloss-finished Grand Symphony body. Together, these tonewoods yield woody lows, pristine highs, and a meaty midrange, with an extra splash of played-in sweetness thanks to the roasted soundboard, plus, Taylor’s baritone bracing pattern ensures a powerful bass response while promoting clarity and balance across the tonal spectrum. The 50th Anniversary 316ce Baritone-6 LTD comes equipped with an ES2 pickup onboard, for ample tonal control and responsiveness.
