This Spring, Taylor presents us with the stunning 816-CE Grand Symphony Limited, constructed with beautifully matched cocobolo tone wood. Few woods can match Cocobolo’s assertive visual beauty, expressed through bold, fiery hues and dramatic variegation. Tonally, cocobolo is known for its volume and a deep low end that’s balanced by an overall brightness, making it a favorite among players. Normally used for Taylor’s Presentation Series and Build to Order guitars, here it guest stars with premium 800 Series appointments, featuring curly maple binding and the popular pearl inlay design.

An astonishing tonewood combination – Sitka spruce and figured cocobolo
Few acoustic guitars can boast so rich a tonewood combination as the Taylor 816ce-LTD. Usually reserved for Taylor’s Presentation series, the 816ce-LTD features a magnificently figured cocobolo back and sides that are absolutely captivating to look at. But good looks aren’t all this exquisite tonewood has to offer you. Its deeply resonant bass, bright highs, and incredible projection go hand in hand with the tonal balance it gets from its elegant Sitka spruce top. Look at it, and you can guess that the Taylor 816ce-LTD is a special instrument. Pick one up from Sweetwater, and you’ll know for sure.
Grand Symphony body style gives you balanced sound and incredible projection
Taylor’s Grand Symphony body style, featured on the 816ce-LTD, is a more modern take on the sleek Grand Auditorium shape, but with the waist moved up toward the neck. This gives the 816ce-LTD a slightly larger lower bout, giving you an excellent blend of power and projection, without losing the high-end definition of the Grand Auditorium body style.
Renowned Taylor Expression System electronics onboard
Designed to faithfully reproduce your guitar’s native tone, the Taylor 816ce-LTD’s Expression System uses patented Dynamic Sensors to capture both top and string vibration with incredible detail. The Taylor ES system was created in partnership with renowned audio pioneer Rupert Neve. Unlike standard onboard electronics, the Taylor Expression System is seamlessly integrated into the design of the 816ce-LTD from the ground up. Onboard tone controls provide added flavor or can be set flat for an uncolored, exceptionally clean amplified sound.
