Mint 2014 Taylor 516ce-FLTD - $1999* +$50 shipping
Straight-grained Tasmanian Blackwood back and sides and a Sitka spruce top yield a dynamic strumming experience on this Grand Symphony limited edition.
Blackwood blends the midrange focus of koa or mahogany with the zesty treble overtones typical of rosewood, while the Grand Symphony shape produces an abundance of low-end power, especially with a heavier attack. Crisp ivoroid binding pops against the shaded edgeburst finish treatment, accentuating the body’s ample curves, including a Venetian cutaway.
The guitar comes plug-and-play ready with Taylor’s proprietary Expression System® 2 electronics, and ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
This guitar has been kept humidified, in its case, is in mint condition and is an absolute joy to play. It is an EXCEPTIONAL strumming guitar!
*Will ship anywhere in the CONUSA.

Can't believe this one hasn't been snagged by somebody. One of Taylor's very best and at this price, one heck of a deal. Good luck with the sale.
