Taylor 326ce Grand Symphony Acoustic-Electric Guitar Shaded Edge Burst

The Taylor 326ce Grand Symphony Acoustic Electric Guitar in Shaded Edge Burst is a versatile instrument for the ambitious player. This acoustic-electric combines a bold and muscular Grand Symphony body with Taylor's innovative soundport cutaway for a guitar that projects with clarity and dynamic range.

Responsive Build and Balanced Tone

The 326ce's mahogany back, sides and neck provide warmth and rich overtones, while the mahogany top enhances midrange punch. The result is an acoustic tone with excellent balance and responsiveness across the tonal spectrum. The guitar's 25.5" scale length and 1-3/4" nut width also make it comfortable for most playing styles.

V-Class Bracing Opens Up the Sound

At the heart of the 326ce's sound is Taylor's revolutionary V-Class bracing. This innovative bracing architecture improves the flexibility and vibration of the guitar top, creating more volume, enhanced pitch accuracy and greater sustain. The V-Class bracing helps the 326ce pump out a bold, complex tone with immersive sonic detail.

Soundport Cutaway Provides New Tonal Possibilities

Taylor's soundport cutaway is a custom cutaway design with an additional soundport on the upper bout, enabling new tones and textures. The soundport cutaway gives players access to higher frets while producing an expansive, three-dimensional sound. For acoustic or plugged-in playing, the soundport cutaway makes the 326ce an exceptionally expressive instrument.

Premium Appointments and Electronics

The 326ce ships with a deluxe Taylor hardshell case and built-in ES2 electronics, which provide a natural amplified tone. Appointments include a shaded edgeburst top, satin-finish mahogany neck, ebony fretboard, three-ring rosette and gemstone fretboard inlays. Esthetically striking and sonically powerful, the 326ce Grand Symphony Acoustic Electric Guitar is a compelling choice for the player in search of an ambitious acoustic voice.
