Sumptin sounds wrong to me. Assuming the new GOs use the same ES as the other models (and I've not heard there is any indication that it is not), then you should have plenty of signal going from ES to your LRBaggs then out to the board. Going balanced helps boost signal strength, but that should be a non-issue when using your Baggs (the balanced line can even overwhealm a PADI's input side even when gained down all the way, so unbalanced 1/4" is better here ...I've done it FWIW).
Shall I assume your ES controls were at noon, with the ES volume at noon-to-1:00? And that your input gain was set appropriately on your Baggs (PADI or Venue?) Also check your body sensor switch on your ES preamp (though that would affect your tone, and not result in low gain to your DI). If all checks out, including with your Baggs, then I'd definitely give Taylor a call as I've never had any ES I've ever ownd suffer from low output unless it was faulty (yup, I've had em go bad). Hope that helps you a bit.
