2021 Taylor 618e
Summary: This is Taylor's reimagined maple/spruce Grand Orchestra, now voiced with V-Class bracing and updated with new aesthetic appointments. Maple’s sonic transparency allows the expressive nuances of the individual player to come through. V-Class architecture is the perfect sonic engine to harness the body's large air capacity. The result is incredible touch sensitivity and impeccable intonation with a deeper, powerful sound. New aesthetic elements include a beautiful Antique Blonde shading, "Mission" inlay pattern inspired by the facades of California's Spanish missions, and maple binding accented with Koa and ivoroid top trim. This guitar ships in a beautiful deluxe "western floral" hard shell case made by Taylor for optimal fit and protection.
