Taylor AD26e Baritone-6 Special Edition

Baritone guitars have appeared periodically throughout the Taylor line for years, and now they’re thrilled to offer this incomparable sound and playing experience to guitarists in our American Dream Series. The AD26e Baritone-6 Special Edition is a six-string acoustic-electric baritone guitar crafted in a non-cutaway Grand Symphony body, delivering a rich, warm, deep voice for players seeking a new tool in their musical repertoire. Back and sides of solid sapele paired with a solid mahogany top yield a dry, woody voice with minimal ringing overtones, a tone profile that’s especially ideal for recording applications. But with the Grand Symphony’s large air capacity, players will also appreciate this model’s power and room-filling projection in live scenarios or for playing alongside vocals in a lower register. The AD26e Baritone-6 is tuned B-to-B, and players can easily return it to standard tuning by placing a capo at the fifth fret. Visual appointments for this special-edition release include black binding, a black/maple/black single-ring rosette, 4mm Dot fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, a firestripe pickguard, nickel hardware, a full-body matte finish, and a shaded edgeburst color treatment for the back, sides, and top, with a heel burst on the neck.
