This Taylor 816ce is quite a guitar! The low end has a fuller, expanded quality and sits nicely, tone-wise, between the 814ce and the 810ce in regard to bass response. It's the perfect guitar for the gigging musician that requires amplification.
This particular 816 gives you the classic combination of a Sitka Spruce top with unique and truly stunning Rosewood back and sides in a really nice Grand Symphony body style. There are also some really fine details here plus the great (and easy to use) Taylor Expression System, so you're ready to play out right away. This has a comfortable 1 3/4" nutwidth on an Ebony fretboard graced with the beautiful Pearl 800 series inlay work. A really great sounding, comfortable acoustic with an elegant appearance. This comes with a Deluxe hard case.
