This 10 string acoustic electric instrument combines the familiar feel of a dreadnought body with the deep, commanding voice that makes the bajo quinto such an essential part of norteño, Tejano and conjunto music. Whether you're laying down powerful rhythmic accompaniment or exploring melodic leads, this is a seriously compelling take on a traditional instrument.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTorrefied Spruce and Sapele for Rich Acoustic Tone\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe torrefied spruce top gives the 150ce an open, lively response with plenty of projection, while the sapele back and sides contribute warmth and balance. The result is a voice with the depth and presence to anchor an ensemble while retaining the articulation needed to keep those doubled string courses clear. The natural satin finish gives the instrument an understated elegance that lets the wood and classic dreadnought shape do the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eComfortable Mahogany Neck and Ebony Fingerboard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA bajo quinto should feel as inviting as it sounds, and Taylor has paid particular attention to the playing experience here. The solid neo tropical mahogany neck features Taylor's Standard Carve profile for a comfortable, familiar feel, while the Crelicam ebony fingerboard provides a smooth playing surface across all 20 frets. The five double string courses offer the rich harmonic character of the traditional bajo quinto, with octave pairs on the two lowest courses and unison pairs on the remaining three.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eEMG ACS Electronics for Stage Ready Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen it's time to plug in, the EMG ACS soundhole pickup brings the natural character of the 150ce to your amplifier or sound system. Its internal preamp is designed to minimize unwanted feedback, while individually adjustable pole pieces allow for precise balance between strings. A conveniently located volume control makes adjustments easy without interrupting your performance. It's a thoughtfully designed system that gives this traditional instrument the flexibility to thrive on a modern stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTraditional Bajo Quinto Sound with Taylor Craftsmanship\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt in Tecate, Baja California, Mexico, the Somos 150ce represents a thoughtful meeting of tradition and contemporary guitar making.
