Looks like I will be investing in a TRS-XLR cable, at least for recording purposes. Can't see that the slight-reduction in noise/increase in signal would make much difference with the usual PA system hook-up.

FWIW, I have never ever experience "better sound" with going balanced on the ES. More gain on the input side, to be sure. Nor did I realize any benefits (e.g. less noise) since I never do long cable runs. All told, I ended up going back to unbalanced, albeit with good-quality guitar cables, and got the same excellent sound without the extra "work" of going balanced. This with live use (zero experience with recording) in my experience over the last several years ...and now still, so far so good

What's a little annoying is that Taylor doesn't offer a 2-jack system like Ibanez do, with an XLR and a 1/4" jack. XLR-XLR cables are everywhere, 1/4" TRS to XLR are not.
