FS/FT: 2013 Taylor GRAND ORCHESTRA - 518e - PRICE DROP!
I’m sure this is one of the first Grand Orchestra models to be sold used, so it’s an honor, and a surprise to offer up my 2013 - 518e for your consideration.
I am sure you have done a lot of research on the GO’s, hence your interest, but if not, this is Taylor Guitars newest body style. It has replaced to old jumbo style, and is so much better looking/feeling. The sound is wonderful; the most ‘Martin’ sounding Taylor I have ever played. The depth of body allows for all of that tonal character that comes with mahogany to come alive! This is one balanced, warm, rich, and satisfying guitar to play and heard be played. It is in 9.8/10 condition, the only mark, which there is a picture of, is on the top left of the top- a sort of tiny dimple. I had to inspect it under a light to find it, but it is there. This guitar is in superb shape. Comes with its fancy case and my guarantee that it will be packed well, with all of the appropriate precautions. I’m always willing to consider trades, but cash is king. SOLD not including shipping. For Paypal, add 3%, or send a certified check. I have many good deals here! • Type/Shape: 6-String Grand Orchestra • Back & Sides: Tropical Mahogany • Top: Sitka Spruce • Soundhole Rosette: 3-ring abalone • Neck: Tropical Mahogany • Fretboard: Ebony • Fretboard Inlay: Deco Diamonds • Headstock Overlay: Indian Rosewood • Binding: Tortoise • Bridge: Ebony • Nut & Saddle: Tusq • Tuning Machines: Gold Taylor Tuners • Strings: ElixirŪ Medium Gauge Strings with NANOWEBŪ Coating • Scale Length: 25-1/2" • Truss Rod: Adjustable • Neck Width at Nut: 1-3/4" • Number of Frets: 20 • Bracing: Grand Orchestra Bracing • Finish: Gloss

Mahogany is not for me. The guitar is in perfect shape!

I played the comparison video for all three Taylor Grand Orchestras. You can view them at Maplestreetguitars on Youtube. The 518 was my favourite! But, they are all very nice!

I am believe they changed it in 2010. the second number of the year it was made is the 4th from the last.. from what I recall.
