I don't have an exact date but I know that late 2016 was a time when there was a change in the ES2 preamp, and there may have been another change in 2018 or 2019. For example, my January 2016 serial-numbered Taylor 614ce, and, my now-traded-in September 2016 serial-numbered Taylor GS Mini-e Koa still had the full-size ES2 preamp (what I term the real ES2 preamp) but my May serial-numbered 2019 Taylor 717e has the smaller architecture, lower-powered ES2 preamp. If you buy a new Taylor with the smaller ES2 preamp and want the "real" ES2 preamp, just email Taylor with the registered guitar's serial-number and tell them you want the full-size ES2 preamp from 2015 or early 2016 and they'll send you one.
