If you are looking for a high-end guitar with high aesthetics and outstanding sound, you will find it in the Taylor 818e Certified Brazilian Rosewood Grand Orchestra Natural. Here a solid Sitka spruce top meets a rare Rio rosewood body, with an innovative "Performance-Bracing" and a thin finish to give the instrument the best possible sound with an extremely high brilliance and overtone spectrum.
A maple binding, custom element inlays in the fretboard, an abalone rosette and a rosewood pickguard ensure a breathtaking look.
The Grand Orchstra body is suitable for a powerful and nuanced acoustic sound, with warm and powerful bass, striking midrange and clear treble.
The in-house Expression System 2 cartridge comes with quite puristic controls. A volume, bass and treble control can be found on the frame. But here, too, it was considered, because the low level of technical equipment ensures a largely free acoustic resonance. The Expression System 2 delivers a surprisingly lively sound with a lot of brilliance and dynamics. Last but not least, an original Taylor case is already included.
