This Taylor 516e 2013 Fall Limited is absolutely breathtaking. The European Spruce top combined with the figured Mahogany back and sides make for a guitar that's not only beautiful to look at, it also sounds extraordinary. The Grand Symphony body style suits this tonewood pairing perfectly, producing a powerful, warm and sophisticated acoustic voice. The perfect bluegrass guitar, but more refined. Premium touches also include tone-enhancing Adirondack spruce CV bracing, figured Mahogany edge trim on the soundboard, a stunning Mahogany rosette, beautiful “Avian” fretboard inlays, Rosewood binding, and the always wonderful Taylor Expression System. This Taylor 516e 2013 Fall Limited is one very special guitar.
