Taylor 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition #3030

The new 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition reintroduces players to a truly singular playing experience that bridges the gap between traditional acoustic sounds and specialized tonal flavors. With its B-to-B tuning, longer-than-standard scale and the unique sonic texture generated by the octave pairing of its third and fourth (D and A) strings, this model delivers a rich low-end voice complemented by a touch of 12-string shimmer. The 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition boasts back, sides and top of solid neo-tropical mahogany crafted in our bold-voiced Grand Symphony body shape, yielding a haymaker of midrange punch that retains exceptional focus alongside its powerful attack. Perfect for any player looking to diversify their musical toolkit, this model will be especially inspiring for guitarists who enjoy experimenting with uncommon sonic palettes. It can also be a useful tool for singers, providing a frequency spectrum that might be more accessible for those with a lower vocal range. Placing a capo at the fifth fret returns the guitar to standard tuning. Visual appointments include a satin finish with a dark stain and a shaded edgeburst top treatment, black binding with a matching three-ring rosette and pickguard, Gemstone fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, and satin black tuners. It also features a traditional Venetian cutaway for easy access to the guitar’s upper register, along with ES2 electronics for faithful amplified tone. It ships with a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
