It can also be a useful tool for singers, providing a frequency spectrum that enhances the sonic richness of the human voice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAppointments include a solid Neo-tropical mahogany top, solid sapele back and sides, satin-finished body, smooth body edges for comfort and playability, and Taylor’s ES2 electronics for a faithful amplification of the tone of the instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis instrument includes a Taylor AeroCase for added protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaylor’s American Dream series embodies all the creative spirit, innovation, and ingenuity that has allowed Taylor Guitars to redefine the definition of the acoustic guitar. At the very core of Taylor's philosophy, is an inner drive to push the boundaries and explore the endless possibilities of sound, body shapes, and playability. Taylor's American Dream Series continues to embody these principles of innovation to create U.S.-made, solid-wood instruments that deliver premium musical performance at an affordable price.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCompared to the Taylor Grand Auditorium, the Grand Symphony has a bigger, rounder lower bout and slightly wider \"waist\" area, and the bigger soundboard means more tonal output. Expect a meaty lower midrange and strong treble shimmer. A Grand Symphony is best if you want a guitar with a robust low end, strong volume when strumming or flatpicking, and clear articulation in response to light fingerpicking attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTonewood Pairing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMahogany has a strong fundamental without a lot of ringing overtones. It adds a natural compression with a \"roll-in\" effect to each note that tends to even out a lively attack for a more linear response. Combined with the sapele body, this tonewood combination produces a nice, earthy tone with direct focus and clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectronics\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA the heart of the Expression System 2 electronics is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, which features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. Because the pickup doesn't sit under the saddle, the bottom of the saddle comes in full contact with the bridge, allowing all the nuance of the guitar's tone to come through clearly whether playing acoustically or plugged in. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before while playing plugged in. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed “professional audio”-grade preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. Onstage through a PA, plugged into your favorite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar. The Taylor Expression System 2 operates through a proprietary 9-volt battery compartment and easy-to-use volume, and active bass and treble controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"jsx-857065747 jsx-4138025721 sectionTitle block relative w-full lg:pr-0 gc-font-bold text-[26px] leading-[32px] py-4 lg:py-8 lg:text-[28px] lg:leading-[34px] mb-8 pl-[46px] lg:pl-[64px] cursor-pointer\" role=\"heading\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"jsx-857065747 jsx-4138025721 panel-content gc-font-light lg:max-w-[1200px] mx-auto\" id=\"productFeatures-content\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"jsx-3415740648 panel-content\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolid neo-tropical mahogany top, solid sapele back and sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeo-tropical mahogany neck, smoked Eucalyptus fingerboard and bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaylor nickel tuning machines with nickel buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTaylor Expression System 2 Professional Audio-Grade electronics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"jsx-857065747 jsx-4138025721 sectionTitle block relative w-full lg:pr-0 gc-font-bold text-[26px] leading-[32px] py-4 lg:py-8 lg:text-[28px] lg:leading-[34px] mb-8 pl-[46px] lg:pl-[64px] cursor-pointer\" role=\"heading\"\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBody\u003cbr\u003eBody type: Grand Symphony, Non-Cutaway\u003cbr\u003eTop wood: Solid Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eBack and sides: Solid Sapele\u003cbr\u003eBracing pattern: Baritone Bracing with Relief Rout\u003cbr\u003eBody finish: Matte\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeck\u003cbr\u003eNeck shape: Standard Carve\u003cbr\u003eNut width: 1-3\/4\" (44.5mm)\u003cbr\u003eFingerboard: Smoked Eucalyptus\u003cbr\u003eNeck wood: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eScale length: 27\" Baritone Scale\u003cbr\u003eNumber of frets: 19\u003cbr\u003eNeck finish: Matte\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBridge: Smoked Eucalyptus\u003cbr\u003eSaddle and nut: Micarta \"Wave\" Saddle; TUSQ Nut Black\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eElectronics\u003cbr\u003ePickup\/preamp: Behind-the-Saddle Transducer with Adjustable Sensors\u003cbr\u003eEQ\/Tuner: Volume, Active Bass and Treble\/None\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther\u003cbr\u003eTuning machines: Taylor Nickel with Nickel Buttons\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Right-Handed\u003cbr\u003eNumber of strings: 6-string\u003cbr\u003eCase: Taylor AeroCase Included\u003cbr\u003eCountry of origin: United States\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53028509352245,"sku":"HADS004011003021334-1277","price":2899.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0996\/5384\/5301\/files\/AD26e-Baritone-6-Special-Edition-1.jpg?v=1783937199","url":"https:\/\/musiquediplomate.com\/products\/taylor-guitars-ad26e-baritone-6-special-edition-shaded-edge-burst","provider":"Centre de Musique Diplomate","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
