2011 purchase. I absolutely love my new 615ce. It's perfect, has a great balanced sound, strong even blend. It's amazing with finger picking and I'm finding its sweet spot for strumming. The ES electronics is bizzar. I wish I could have found more reviews that weren't promotional materials to understand the problems with this pick-up system. Maybe in time I'll find a solution... or just put a better system in the guitar. Currently the high B and E strings are louder than the rest of the strum. They stick out and make the sound unbalanced... totally unlike the amazing natural sound of the guitar. I even sent it back to Taylor for them to work on it... but it came back to me sounding pretty much the same. I would give the guitar a 5 star... but I mainly play live and plugged in... which is not enhancing the bands overall sound. OUCH. YUCK. I've put other guitars in our system and can make them beautiful sounding. I worked on the Taylor in our system for 1/2 hour and never came up with a satisfactory sound... until I put a mic on it, which then instantly made it sound the way it's supposed to. After spending so much money on a guitar, I wish it would sound on stage like it does in the privacy of the show-room or my living room... especially since that's exactly what Taylor is promoting their ES to do. I feel like I've been lied to... hood-winked. The emperor has no clothes... "It's a great system, the best." All of Taylor's promotion says in videos and written. UMMM... are you hearing the same thing I am? Please listen to the guitar in the store and check the system out first before buying... and try two or three kinds of amps just to be sure you know what your dealing with. I hope and pray my attitude about this pick-up will change over time. Maybe there is just something I'm missing that I've never missed in my 25 years of playing and sound mixing.

A signature quality of Big Leaf maple - besides its crisp, bright tone - is its ability to cut through on stage. As a result, you'll find many 600 Series guitars in live performance situations, easily able to hold their own with the rest of the band. The 600 Series is a visual standout, too: Its jaw-dropping maple figure is available in a selection of natural, color and sunburst finishes.
