Taylor 618e 6 Strings Grand Orchestra Electro Acoustic Guitar With Bag Overview:
At the vanguard of our newly revoiced Grand Orchestra body shape, the 618e establishes a new style of bold, powerful acoustic tone within the Taylor line. Solid maple back and sides lend this big-bodied powerhouse a focused, transparent sound that adapts and reflects the style of the player, while a solid Sitka spruce top adds brilliance and clarity. The transformative introduction of V-Class bracing into the Grand Orchestra body offers players a more robust, vivid tonal response, with greater volume and sustain alongside heightened clarity and musicality that make this model even more player-reflective and a versatile choice for musicians across styles. The touch-sensitive response balances out serious headroom and projection so that players can explore a wide dynamic range without losing balance or fading out of a mix. Appointments for this 600 Series model include maple binding with koa purfling, a single-ring paua rosette, mother-of-pearl Mission inlays, and a gloss finish treated with an Antique Blonde finish for the entire guitar. To preserve the traditional look and feel of this jumbo-style guitar, we’ve chosen to build it without a cutaway. The 618e ships with ES2 electronics in a deluxe Western Floral hardshell case.Features:Discover the features that make this guitar uniqueGrand Orchestra ShapesTaylor’s biggest body shape blends power, detail and balance across the tonal spectrum.Sitka Spruce Top WoodsThe soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.Maple Body WoodsRevoiced to produce greater warmth, complexity, volume, sustain and responsivenessExpression System 2 ElectronicsThe Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.V-Class Bracing A revolutionary design that balances the flexibility and stability of the top, V-Class bracing produces unmatched sustain, volume, and intonation.
