Taylor 326CE 2024 Grand Symphony Acoustic-Electric Guitar (#1205024038)

*Photos shown are of the actual gutiar. Serial 1205024038.

Marrying the warmth and clarity of Urban Ash with the innovative design of our revoiced Grand Symphony body shape, the new 326ce brings a new type of acoustic tone to the Taylor line. Responsibly sourced Urban Ash back and sides pair with a solid mahogany top for a punchy, midrange-rich tone whose emphasis on the fundamental note means the note you play is the note you hear, largely free from ringing overtones. V-Class bracing helps shape the 326ce’s vibrant response, drawing out greater volume and longer sustain while ensuring near-perfect intonation all the way down the neck.

The soundport cutaway, placed at roughly a 45-degree angle from the main soundhole, adds dimension and immersion for a surround-sound effect that truly fills any space with rich acoustic sound. This model’s dusky sonic character is reflected in its subtle visual aesthetics, with black binding, a three-ring black rosette and Gemstone inlays in Italian acrylic all framed by our new Urban Sienna color treatment in a 5-mil satin finish. Capped off with satin black tuners, light-gauge strings and ES2 electronics, the 326ce is sure to capture the imagination of any player. 

• CASE/GIG BAG: Hardshell Case Included.
