This is the 2014 (redesigned) model of the Taylor 816ce with the new ES2 pickups.  The pickup works well and it has been kept properly humidified for its whole life.  It plays in tune up and down the neck with no buzzing or playability issues.  There is some scratching (pick-rash) around the sound hole (see photos) and a small dent on the neck (also see photos).  Comes with the Taylor factory hardshell case.From Taylor:Slightly bigger than Taylor’s Grand Auditorium body style, the Grand Symphony 816ce yields a powerful and rich sound without sacrificing bell-like articulation. It makes a potent strummer, and dynamic fingerstylists will enjoy the thick, full-bodied character of the notes. As part of Taylor’s 800 Series revoicing package for 2014, the GS will sound even richer with more low-end rumble. Premium appointments include maple binding and back strip, rosewood top edge trim, a rosewood pickguard, Taylor’s new Element fretboard inlay in mother-of-pearl, a marbled fretboard, and new Expression System 2 acoustic electronics. The guitar features a Venetian cutaway and includes a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
