Featuring an enticing tonewood combination and unique design, the 8-string Limited Edition 326e from Taylor is a tremendous baritone that adds a new range of sounds to your acoustic arsenal. The 326e's Grand Symphony body shape combines a Tropical Mahogany top and Blackwood back and sides, meaning you'll get better low-end response and thicker, more powerful tone across the board. There's still plenty of shine and top-end response thanks to octave strings placed next to the 3rd and 4th strings, making for an enjoyable combination of low-end depth and treble definition. Expression System 2 electronics allow this guitar's diverse tonal palette to be easily translated through an amp, with all its tonal character intact. A Shaded Edgeburst finish nicely complements the guitar's dark tonewoods, along with a black pickguard, white binding, and three-ring rosette. Whether it's being used as a complimentary piece to a regular acoustic or by itself, this Limited Edition 326e has a sound to behold.
Headquartered in El Cajon, California, Taylor Guitars was founded in 1974 by Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, and has grown into the leading global builder of premium acoustic guitars. Taylor employs over 900 people and currently produces hundreds of guitars per day in its state-of-the-art factory complexes in both El Cajon and in Tecate, Baja California, Mexico. The company maintains an active dealer network, with Taylor guitars sold through hundreds of retail locations in North America and with international distribution to 60 countries, including a distribution warehouse and factory service center in the Netherlands.
Renowned for blending modern, innovative manufacturing techniques with a master craftsman's attention to detail, Taylor guitars are widely considered among the best-sounding and easiest to play in the world. The company was a pioneer in the use of computer mills, lasers and other high-tech tools and proprietary machinery, and today, Bob Taylor is widely recognized throughout the musical instrument industry as the visionary acoustic guitar manufacturer. Among the company’s many innovations are its patented Taylor Neck, the first major innovation in the construction of the acoustic guitar in the last 100 years; the award-winning Expression System® 2 (ES2) pickup, a groundbreaking approach to amplifying an acoustic guitar; and the T5, the first, true hybrid acoustic and electric guitar that can produce amplified acoustic tones, full-crunch electric, and everything in-between with the flip of a five-way switch.
In addition to its forward-thinking approach to guitar design and manufacturing, Taylor has applied that same approach to its wood sourcing and environmental sustainability initiatives. Taylor is dedicated to the pursuit of best practices in forest management, new models of reforestation, and bringing ethically harvested tonewoods to market. This approach, together with outstanding playability, flawless craftsmanship, and stunning aesthetics, are just a few of the reasons that many of today’s leading musicians make Taylor their guitar of choice. The company’s artist roster numbers in the thousands, and includes the likes of Taylor Swift, Jason Mraz, Zac Brown, and many other established musicians.
