Due to the unique voicing profile of the guitar, Andy Powers opted for our traditional Venetian-style cutaway rather than the distinctive soundport cutaway typically featured with the Grand Symphony body style.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlayers will immediately notice the longer-than-standard 27-inch scale length, which accommodates the guitar’s heavier-gauge strings and lower frequency range. The guitar is tuned from B to B, and can be set to standard tuning by placing a capo at the fifth fret. Perhaps its most interesting feature is the octave pairing of its third and fourth strings (D and A), which generates a touch of 12-string-esque shimmer and adds an extra dimension of sonic texture to the baritone’s rich, deep voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“It’s a whole new ballgame,” he said in the fall 2009 (Vol. 61) edition of \u003cem\u003eWood\u0026amp;Steel\u003c\/em\u003e. “It’s cool because you can either accentuate those octaves or stay away from them. The beauty of this guitar is that it goes low and those two strings brighten it up, but they don’t sound too ‘octave-y.’ It doesn’t give you that [full] 12-string effect — it really just extends the range because, as a baritone, the octaves aren’t out of the range of a normal acoustic guitar sound. It just fills the guitar out; it gives it a nicer spread.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith its all-mahogany construction and the large air capacity of the Grand Symphony body, this 326ce serves up a big, brawny midrange punch that remains focused and balanced across its range, curbing the ringing overtones for a clean low-register tone. The hardwood top helps take the edges off the attack, making its response more manageable for recording purposes and dynamic play despite its muscular baritone sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVisual appointments for the 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition reflect its place in our 300 Series, starting with the dark satin stain with an edgeburst treatment to complement the duskier color of the mahogany body. Other details include black binding with a matching three-ring rosette and pickguard, satin black tuners, a traditional Venetian cutaway, and Gemstone fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic. Onboard ES2 electronics guarantee clear, authentic plugged-in sound, and the guitar includes a deluxe hardshell case for protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThanks to its unique configuration and near-endless array of musical possibilities, this is a guitar that must be seen, played and heard in person to fully appreciate of its capabilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTop Wood\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBody Wood\u003c\/strong\u003e: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Wood: \u003c\/strong\u003eWest African Crelican Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length: \u003c\/strong\u003e27″\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets: \u003c\/strong\u003e19\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Inlay: \u003c\/strong\u003eGemstone, Italian Acrylic\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Binding\/Edge Treatment: \u003c\/strong\u003eBlack\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nType of Neck Joint: \u003c\/strong\u003eTaylor Neck\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNeck\/Heel: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"value\"\u003eNeo-Tropical Mahogany\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish: \u003c\/strong\u003eSatin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nNut \u0026amp; Saddle: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"value\"\u003eTusq Nut, Micarta Saddle\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTuners: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"value\"\u003eSatin Black\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTruss Rod Cover: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"value\"\u003eWest African Crelicam Ebony\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCase: \u003c\/strong\u003eTaylor Deluxe Hardshell Brown\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nPickup: \u003c\/strong\u003eExpression System 2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLauzon Music is the #1 trusted source for musicians.
