In celebration of Taylor Guitars' 50th anniversary, this limited-edition 858e LTD 12-String Grand Orchestra is part of a run of guitars that the company has released. With its 12-string design, this acoustic-electric guitar captures the essence of Taylor's early jumbo 12-strings.

The 858e LTD boasts a classic tonewood combination of a solid Indian rosewood back and sides coupled with a Sitka spruce top. With both woods boasting a simple but beautiful natural finish, the contrasts of the wood colors get to shine with little interruption, showcasing the lighter color of Sitka spruce against a naturally darker Indian rosewood. On its inside, the 858e LTD features Taylor's revolutionary V-Class bracing system to aid with sustain and projection. A three-ring green abalone rosette surrounds the soundhole, adding a nice focal point on the top of this guitar.

Like the rest of the 50th Anniversary Taylor releases, this guitar comes stocked withc Taylor's ES2 electronics system, featuring a discreetly mounted under-saddle pickup. Onboard controls allow fine-tuning of tone, featuring independent treble, bass and volume controls.
