Crafted with back, sides and top of striking ribbon mahogany, this custom Grand Auditorium is loaded with elegant, geometric wood appointments. Tonally, players can expect a bold, meaty midrange character and a strong fundamental focus with limited overtones. The single-ring cocobolo and boxwood rosette showcases our Art Deco inlay design, complemented by the cocobolo/boxwood fretboard and peghead inlays in our stylish Euro Deco pattern. Visual accents include flamed maple body and soundhole binding, a flamed maple heel cap and back strip, flamed maple peghead and fretboard purfling, and black/maple rosette, soundhole, and top purfling. The full-body gloss finish and satin-finished mahogany neck are hand-sprayed with a dusky tobacco shaded edgeburst, while the back also sports special window pane shading extending from either side of the back strip. Featuring a Venetian cutaway and voiced with V-Class bracing, this custom model also features a firestripe faux tortoiseshell pickguard, bone bridge pins, Taylor polished bronze tuners with matching buttons, and an onboard ES2 pickup with a pre-installed TaylorSense unit. It ships in a brown deluxe hardshell case.
