Maple’s brightness is rounded out by the tonal depth of the GS body, producing a sound that is both powerful and articulate. That's the description from the Taylor website. Let me tell you they are dead on. After I finished looking at the stunning quilted Maple and played this 616ce I was thinking to myself, Maple’s brightness is rounded out by the tonal depth of the GS body, producing a sound that is both powerful and articulate.

Really amazing as we have all come to think of Maple as having just a bright tone. Give the folks at Taylor kudos for allowing us to enjoy the beauty of quilted Maple while still get a full-bodied sound.

We have added a couple of custom features with the Florentine cutaway and Gotoh 510 tuners to add that little extra style and make this 616ce unique.

Please feel free to give us a call as we love to talk guitar. We are celebrating our 81st year and look forward to adding you to our long list of happy customers around the world.
