Pre-Owned 2023 USA Taylor 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition Acoustic Electric Shaded Edgeburst with OHSC

The 2023 USA Taylor 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition Acoustic-Electric Guitar in Shaded Edgeburst is a uniquely engineered instrument that blends deep, low-end baritone rumble with the sparkling shimmer of a 12-string guitar. This American-made acoustic features an all-solid mahogany build, a 27-inch scale length, and a unique 8-string setup that pairs the two middle strings with octave courses.

This was a new guitar here at Truetone in 2023, sold to a long-time regular, and is now back again.  We're happy, as the model is no longer available - and an 8-string baritone acoustic is a truly unique instrument.  The guitar has been setup to play perfectly by the techs in our shop, and is in great conditions with some honesty player wear.  The original hardshell case is included.

Here's the original write-up from when we first had the guitar:

 The new 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition reintroduces players to a truly singular playing experience that bridges the gap between traditional acoustic sounds and specialized tonal flavors. With its B-to-B tuning, longer-than-standard scale and the unique sonic texture generated by the octave pairing of its third and fourth (D and A) strings, this model delivers a rich low-end voice complemented by a touch of 12-string shimmer.

The 326ce Baritone-8 Special Edition boasts back, sides and top of solid neo-tropical mahogany crafted in Taylor's bold-voiced Grand Symphony body shape, yielding a haymaker of midrange punch that retains exceptional focus alongside its powerful attack. Perfect for any player looking to diversify their musical toolkit, this model will be especially inspiring for guitarists who enjoy experimenting with uncommon sonic palettes. It can also be a useful tool for singers, providing a frequency spectrum that might be more accessible for those with a lower vocal range.

Placing a capo at the fifth fret returns the guitar to standard tuning.  This is an extremely versatile guitar, and unlike much of anything out there.

Visual appointments include a satin finish with a dark stain and a shaded edgeburst top treatment, black binding with a matching three-ring rosette and pickguard, Gemstone fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, and satin black tuners.  It also features a traditional Venetian cutaway for easy access to the guitar’s upper register, along with ES2 electronics for faithful amplified tone. It ships with a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
