Grand Symphony
The Taylor Grand Symphony body shape features a larger air chamber than the Grand Auditorium, combined with an innovative soundport cutaway, both of which work together with the V-Class bracing to produce a high-fidelity, symphonic voice thats unique among Taylors offering of acoustic guitar body shapes. Radiating sound to create an immersive, reverb-like effect with remarkable sustain, the Taylor Grand Symphony features a slightly shorter 24 7/8-inch scale length and is designed to offer seasoned players a whole new acoustic experience.

V-Class Bracing
The Taylor Grand Symphony features Taylors innovative new V-Class bracing, which lets the soundboard of the guitar vibrate naturally, increasing sustain and overall cohesiveness, and generating additional volume without sacrificing sustain. This design puts the body more in tune with the strings, improving articulation and harmonic alignment, resulting in a sound that is optimally warm and seasoned, nicely blended, and full of luscious low end without being muddy.

ES2 Electronics
The Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) delivers the latest technology in Taylor acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the ES2 system is Taylors patented behind-the-saddle pickup, featuring three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The new positioning enables the piezo pickups crystals to respond more naturally to the guitars energy as it is transferred through the saddle, with three pickup sensors installed behind the saddle, through the bridge, with three tiny Allen screws that calibrate the position of the sensors in relation to the saddle. Together with Taylors custom-designed preamp, this ES2 system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness.
