The Taylor 316e Sapele/Spruce Grand Symphony Acoustic-Electric Guitar offers the richness of the solid-wood acoustic experience. Sapele shares mahogany's lively tonal response and, together with a gloss-finish Sitka spruce top, rings out with a brightness and clarity that give these guitars a definitive Taylor voice. Black binding flanks sapele's ribbon-like grain, with large pearl fretboard dots adding a traditional touch. Grand Symphony (GS)The Grand Symphony shape joined the line in 2006 and delivers Taylor's boldest, richest acoustic voice. Think of it as a Grand Auditorium with a turbo boost, thanks to expanded physical dimensions, including a slightly wider waist and a bigger lower bout. Strummers and pickers with a driving attack will love the fullness, volume and sustain. Yet for such a robust voice, the GS is also clear and responsive to fast picking runs or a light fingerstyle touch, so if you're a dynamic player, this shape is a true contender. And the big voice doesn't come at the expense of balance. The piano-like bass, meaty midrange, and thick, shimmering highs blend seamlessly. If you like a lush, potent guitar tone that has the horsepower to compete with other acoustic cannons out there, the GS shape is a worthy choice.SapeleAn alternative tonewood that joined the Taylor fold over a decade ago. It's sometimes mistakenly referred to as African mahogany because it closely resembles the West African wood khaya, which is commercially known as African mahogany. Sapele is a highly sustainable, relatively fast-growing wood. Tonally, it does everything that mahogany does, with a little extra treble zing. Taylor will be able to offer it for a long, long time.
Expression System®Natural Sound Made SimplePeople love the clear, full acoustic tone of their Taylors. Why should it be any different when they plug in? That’s why we spent several years developing our own onboard acoustic pickup and preamp. Taylor’s ground-breaking Expression System® (ES) was designed to naturally amplify the warm acoustic sound of your guitar.The ES is an all-magnetic acoustic guitar pickup system that works like a microphone to produce a pure signal and a warm, natural acoustic sound. When you plug in, you'll hear the sound of your guitar, not the sound of the pickup. No complicated controls. No tone simulators. Just a clean amplified acoustic guitar sound supported by three simple controls — volume, bass and treble.Breakthrough TechnologyYears of research brought us to a simple realization: Nothing sounds as true and musical as a microphone. With that as a starting point, Taylor’s David Hosler led the team responsible for the Expression System's breakthrough technology. Utilizing a unique Dynamic Body Sensor® mounted to the soundboard, a Dynamic String Sensor® embedded beneath the fretboard, and a discrete preamp, the advanced ES technology is unlike any other guitar pickup system.Integrated DesignThe ES was designed in-house, alongside our acoustic guitars, which allowed us to build the ES seamlessly into the design of the guitar, for an integrated pickup system unlike any other. From the design and location of the body and string sensors to the voicing of the preamp, the ES is fully optimized for the Taylor sound. The elegant design, including the non-intrusive control knobs, also preserves the aesthetic of a Taylor guitar.

1-850-457-7557International Buyers – Please Note:We normally utilize USPS or FEDEX as our international shippers. USPS is usually cheaper than FEDEX or UPS. However, USPS will not ship large boxes to some countries. Also USPS has insurance limits of $500 - $600 to a number of countries. Some countries have no insurance limits, and to some countries USPS will not insure at all.As you can see, international shipping rates and options can get very confusing. Because of this, we set our shipping calculator on our listings for UPS Saver International rates. We can almost always ship for less than that amount, and when you buy an item from us we will invoice you for the least expensive shipping option that provides full insurance coverage. If you accept a shipping option that will not insure the merchandise for the full value of the item, in the event of damage or a loss you will only be reimbursed for the amount of the insurance coverage. You will be required to state by email through the Ebay communications system that you accept this potential for financial loss. We pride ourselves in packaging VERY thoroughly, but when shipping merchandise, damage and loss are always a possibility.  ***If you have a shipping preference of either USPS or FedEx, contact us immediately and we will accommodate you if that carrier meets our cost and/or insurance requirements. Otherwise, we will ship with the least expensive service that meets insurance and size requirements.***- Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.- Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying.- These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up – do not confuse them for additional shipping charges.- We do not mark merchandise values below value or mark items as "gifts" - US and International government regulations prohibit such behavior.- We do not accept returns from international buyers #JD#
