Producing rich, deep tones that bridge the gapbetween standard and bass guitars, baritones offer a unique sonic texture. Any musician seeking to expand their tonal range or add a different color to their sound should try one. They’re ideal for players with lower vocal ranges and those who like a detuned sound. Taylor has a history of crafting baritone guitars, including 6- and 8-string models, and even a 9-string made for our 35th Anniversary in 2009.

The 50th Anniversary 316ce Baritone-6 LTD is a natural extension of that heritage. Our baritones feature a lower B tuning and a 27-inch scale length. This limited-edition 6-string pairs solid sapele back and sides with a torrefied Sitka spruce top in a gloss-finished Grand Symphony body. Together, these tonewoods yield woody lows, pristine highs and a meaty midrange, with an extra splash of played-in sweetness thanks to the roasted soundboard. Our baritone bracing pattern ensures a powerful bass response while promoting clarity and balance across the tonal spectrum. A slim Taylor neck delivers a familiar, hand-friendly playing experience. Visual details include Gemstone fretboard and peghead inlays in Italian acrylic; a black 3-ring rosette; black body and fretboard binding; black/white/black edge trim and rosette purfling; a firestripe faux-tortoiseshell pickguard; and a shaded edgeburst body and neck. Taylor gold tuners, ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots and a commemorative label inside round out the 50th Anniversary appointments. It comes equipped with an onboard ES2 pickup and ships in a Deluxe Hardshell Case.
