Hand-Picked Tonewoods
To give CME customers a truly next level Taylor acoustic, CMEs CEO Andrew Yonke and Director of New Product Dan Bordonaro went to the factory, themselves, and hand-selected the top on this Taylor Custom model.
Grand Auditorium
Featuring Cocobolo back and sides, paired with a Lutz Spruce top thats received an aged toner treatment, accented by figured Hawaiian koa binding, Taylors medium-sized Grand Auditorium body shape offers balanced highs and supportive lows, making it a versatile choice thats fit for nearly any playing style. Boasting bold, balanced tone, the Taylor Grand Auditorium provides vibrant, well-defined sound across the entire tonal spectrum, thanks to a more tapered waist than a traditional dreadnought, making the Taylor Grand Auditorium the Swiss Army Knife of Taylors body shapes.
V-Class Bracing
The Taylor Custom Grand Auditorium 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.
