Taylor 416e Grand Symphony ES Acoustic-Electric Guitar (with Case)

No longer available at zZounds
Similar to rosewood, the African ovangkol found in the sides and back of the 416e Grand Symphony ES helps create focused projection and crystalline tone.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Grand Symphony body shape Robust, strong bass balanced by clear articulation
Spruce top Articulate tone, projects well, resists scratches
Taylor Expression System pickups Innovative multiple pickup system on-board
Ovangkol back and sides Wide and full midrange; smooth lows and highs

Players continue to discover with the Taylor 416e solid African ovangkol's responsive, rosewood-like tone, which pairs well with Sitka spruce and can accommodate a range of playing styles. White binding applies a crisp counterpoint against the gloss top and mottled brown hues of ovangkol, while the Expression System wires these guitars for high-fidelity amplified acoustic sound.

As far a fairly priced production acoustic guitars, I've never been let down by Taylor. Hell, even their laminate guitars sound better than some builders solids. As for this particular Taylor, it's a full range guitar. I play a lot of alternate tunings, and this thing takes it like a champ! Haven't tried the electronics yet, but extremely pleased by what I've seen thus far!
