Redefine your acoustic playing with the commemorative baritone tones of the Taylor 316ce Limited Edition.
The Taylor 316ce Baritone-6 50th Anniversary Limited-Edition acoustic-electric guitar gives you a bold, resonant voice and premium appointments to celebrate Taylor Guitars' 50 years of craftsmanship. Its torrefied Sitka spruce top and sapele back and sides pump out deep, rich tones from the Grand Symphony body shape. The 27" baritone scale length and custom bracing further enhance the low end, letting you explore new musical territory. Plug in the ES2 pickup system for amplified performance with balanced tone. As a limited-edition 50th Anniversary model, this guitar ships in a deluxe case and includes a certificate of authenticity to document its prestige.
Baritone Scale Unlocks New Creative Possibilities
The longer 27" baritone scale length gives you more string tension and access to lower tunings. You can tune down to B or even A without losing tone or playability. This opens up new creative avenues, whether you want to compose in these unorthodox tunings or cover baritone-friendly songs. The tone woods and custom bracing are optimized for the baritone range, giving you a robust low end with clear, articulate highs.
Torrefied Top Enhances Resonance
The torrefied Sitka spruce top has been specially heat-treated to mimic the resonance of wood that has aged for decades. It produces a broader tonal range with richer overtones and longer sustain. When paired with sapele back and sides, you get a tone that is both powerful and focused. The Grand Symphony body shape provides generous low-end punch and shimmering highs.
Premium 50th Anniversary Appointments
As a limited-edition 50th Anniversary model, the 316ce Baritone-6 is adorned with premium components to commemorate Taylor's legacy of craftsmanship. Gemstone fingerboard inlays, gold tuners and ebony bridge pins with acrylic dots give it an upscale appearance. A special 50th Anniversary truss rod cover and neck label further celebrate the milestone. It comes with a deluxe hardshell case for safe transport and storage. Most notably, you get a certificate of authenticity personally signed by Bob Taylor to document its prestige.
Plug in with the ES2 Pickup System
Taylor's ES2 pickup system lets you amplify your instrument with stunning realism. It uses three uniquely positioned behind-the-saddle transducers to capture nuances of your playing style. Taylor's custom-designed preamp provides independent tone controls for blending the pickup signals, as well as a phase switch and tuner. Whether on stage or recording, the ES2 system delivers the natural sound of your guitar.
