USED TAYLOR / 616ce ES1 Transparent Red, Manufactured in 2013 [03]

A Grand Symphony model in a vibrant transparent red!
This 2013 model features the ES1 pickup, which still has a dedicated following. It has an X-bracing pattern, with maple used for the sides, back, and neck.
There are some dents and minor scratches visible. Most of the dents on the top are near the bottom and are somewhat noticeable because they’re accompanied by cracks in the finish. The plating on the metal parts also shows some tarnish. The battery compartment appears to be an older style, but it has been notched at the top to accommodate a long 9V battery.
The neck is in good condition, and the truss rod has been tested to move 60 degrees in both directions. The frets have been dressed and show no dents; they retain about 80% of their original height. Both playability and sound are impeccable.
True to the Grand Symphony model, it has a rich natural resonance, with an exquisite balance between the clarity typical of maple and a deep, thumping bass. It’s a guitar that looks outstanding on stage.
