Description
Constructed with a Lutz spruce top and rosewood back and sides, Taylor's finest Grand Symphony dazzles with luscious low-end and the shimmering sparkle you've come to expect from the California brand. V-Class bracing, a Taylor innovation, allows the Lutz spruce top to vibrate more freely, adding projection and sustain and allowing this classic combination of tonewoods to shine. This Builder's Edition model also includes a suite of premium features designed to improve your playing experience, like chamfered body edges and a new soundport cutaway. Finally, Taylor caps it off with premium appointments like an abalone rosette, mother-of-pearl inlays, maple binding, and rosewood edge trim.
The Taylor 816ce Builder's Edition Grand Symphony Lutz Spruce/Rosewood Natural comes equipped with ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.
