Maple/Engelmann
The clear, balanced tone of Big Leaf maple, enhanced by the warm subtlety of the Engelmann spruce top, creates a magic aural blend that sounds as great as it looks.
Grand Auditorium (GA)
The GA is Taylor’s most versatile and popular shape, excelling at light-touch fingerstyle to full-blown strumming. Great for mic’ing and recording, the GA’s balanced mid-range and bright tone exemplify the Taylor voice.
Fishman™ Prefix Pro Blend®
The Fishman™ Prefix Pro® Blend combines a Fishman Matrix transducer with an electret-condenser microphone. Multiple tone controls and a semi-parametric Contour EQ offer advanced tone-shaping.
Gloss Top, Back & Sides
The finish used to create this guitar's lustrous gloss top, back, and sides was developed at Taylor for maximum durability and resistance to cold-checking. This ultra violet-cured finish is also more environmentally friendly than traditional lacquer finishes.
