Compact Guitar with Boatloads of Sparkling Tone
Comfortable body shape combined with excellent tonewoods
In 2020, Taylor’s Grand Theater body shape debuted. Taking notes from the Grand Orchestra, the GT’s body shape features those same uber-comfortable contours downsized and combined with a nimble neck, making it a quick favorite for guitarists of all styles. Combined with Sitka spruce and figured maple, this body shape combines with its tonewoods for excellent projection and just the right dose of sparkle. Not to mention, the Mission inlays in mother-of-pearl and ivoriod adorning the Smoky West African Ebony fingerboard are sure to dazzle the eyes of your audience.
C-Class bracing coaxes a big sound out of a small body
If you ask Taylor master builder Andy Powers, a guitar is only as good as its bracing pattern. And with the limited size of the Grand Theater, a new bracing pattern was needed to help it reach its full sonic potential. As such, this diminutive guitar is equipped with C-Class bracing, a proprietary bracing pattern developed by Andy and Taylor Guitars to bring out a surprisingly robust bass response. C-Class bracing leverages an asymmetrical, cantilevered design that strikes the perfect balance between stiffness and flexibility. Like Taylor’s groundbreaking V-Class architecture, C-Class bracing increases sustain, improves volume, enhances projection, and sharpens intonation. When Sweetwater guitarists heard it for the first time, they couldn’t believe that a guitar this small can sound so big.
Taylor Expression System 2 electronics deliver superior sound onstage
If you play plugged in, then you’re going to love the Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics built into your 611e 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 611e’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.
