Taylor 618e,V-Class(R)Bracing
The 618e Grand Orchestra, is a prime example of the high-quality tonewoods Taylor selects for their guitars. It features solid Sitka spruce as its top, which gives you wonderful projection with the perfect amount of sparkle, and the Taylor 618e's Big Leaf maple back and sides give it an extra bright and snappy tone. This guitar also features bracing that gives you better tone, response, and sustain.
If you play plugged in, then you're going to love the Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics built into your 618e acoustic-electric guitar. The key to this fantastic system is the 3-section proprietary pickup located behind the saddle. Because of where it's positioned and how it's integrated into the Taylor 618e's saddle, the ES2 pickup provides you with remarkably clear and accurate sound. In addition to a master volume control, a pair of tone controls let you tweak your highs and lows to get the sound you need, and a discreet phase switch offers vital onboard feedback suppression.
