The Taylor 260ce-K DLX 10-string dreadnought acoustic-electric Bajo Quinto stands out with its bold koa construction and specialized setup for Latin regional music. Solid Hawaiian koa tops and layered koa back and sides create a unique tone with warmth and clear highs. The Venetian cutaway lets your hand reach the upper frets without effort, while the shaded edgeburst gloss finish highlights the wood’s natural pattern. Outfitted with an EMG ACS soundhole humbucker pickup, this bajo quinto is ready for live performance or direct recording. Five double courses tuned in fourths give it a distinct, percussive sound that works well when paired with accordion and bass. A deluxe Taylor hardshell case keeps the instrument safe for travel and storage.
Solid Hawaiian Koa Top Enhances Tone and Projection
This Bajo Quinto uses a solid Hawaiian koa top, which offers a lively attack and balanced sustain. The koa wood’s natural midrange brings out clear notes when strumming or picking, and the top responds quickly to changes in technique. Players notice increased warmth and depth, especially as the instrument gets more playing time.
EMG ACS Soundhole Humbucker Provides Reliable Amplification
Amplification uses an EMG ACS acoustic soundhole humbucker, giving a strong, noise-free signal for live performance or studio work. This pickup transmits the guitar’s acoustic tone directly to an amp or PA system, maintaining clarity without feedback. The unit’s controls are easy to reach, streamlining the setup for amplified gigs.
Cutaway and Taylor Neck Improve Playability
The Venetian cutaway opens access to all 20 frets, letting fingers move freely across the ebony fingerboard. Taylor’s standard neck profile feels smooth and comfortable, reducing strain during long sets. Gold mini tuners keep tuning stable, while the matte neck finish limits hand friction for faster changes.
Durable Build and Deluxe Case Protect the Instrument
The body uses gloss-finished Hawaiian koa and sturdy layered sides, reinforced with C-class bracing for consistent sound and strength. Black body binding and Italian acrylic inlays add visual detail. The included Taylor deluxe hardshell case secures the guitar against bumps and climate changes during travel.
