Torrefaction's Touch: Vintage Warmth, Modern Projection

Meticulously crafted with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, this Taylor Catch Custom guitar boasts a played-in sound that oozes vintage character. The torrefaction process imbues the wood with the tonal maturity of a decades-old instrument, offering a rich, seasoned warmth and enhanced projection. The neo-tropical mahogany back and sides complement this with a punchy midrange, adding depth and clarity to the overall voice. This pairing creates a well-balanced tone that's ideal for players seeking the sound of a vintage instrument with the benefit of modern responsiveness and playability. This ageless acoustic-electric is finished in a stunning pearl white gloss coat that not only highlights the wood's natural beauty but also contributes to the guitar's luminous presence.

Taylor Grand Pacific: Clear and Powerful Tone

A bold departure from Taylor's iconic Grand Auditorium body style, the Grand Pacific shape brings a unique sonic signature to the table. This slope-shouldered dreadnought produces round, overlapping notes that ring out with a rich harmonic resonance. It's a warm, full-bodied sound that's both powerful and refined. The Grand Pacific design eliminates unwanted low-end muddiness, making it perfect for cutting open-chord strumming and driving bass-note runs. It's constructed with Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing, enhancing sustain, increasing volume and improving intonation. It's an advanced sonic engine that ensures that every note rings true, with clarity and consistency across the fretboard.

Mother-of-Pearl and Ebony Add High-Contrast Elegance

Visual artistry takes center stage with the Taylor Custom Torrefied Sitka Spruce-Neo-Tropical Mahogany Grand Pacific's high-contrast appointments. The progressive diamond mother-of-pearl fretboard inlays take you on a captivating visual journey, while the mother-of-pearl/ebony rosette adds a touch of refined sophistication. The ebony binding and black-and-white edge trim further enhance the guitar's elegant aesthetic, creating a striking visual contrast against the pearl white finish. Gotoh 510 antique chrome tuners with black buttons ensure precise tuning stability, while the black pickguard and ebony bridge pins complete the guitar's refined look.

ES2 with TaylorSense: Precision Amplification, Intelligent Monitoring

For players seeking exceptional amplified tone, this sophisticated acoustic-electric guitar is equipped with Taylor's Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics. This innovative system, built around a behind-the-saddle pickup with three uniquely positioned sensors, captures the guitar's nuanced voice with remarkable clarity. The custom-designed Taylor preamp with volume, bass and treble controls allows for precise tonal sculpting. The onboard phase switch minimizes feedback, ensuring clean and powerful performances from the practice space to the main stage. The addition of TaylorSense technology allows you to closely monitor humidity levels, temperature and any potential physical impacts, ensuring your Taylor Custom Torrefied Sitka Spruce-Neo-Tropical Mahogany Grand Pacific acoustic-electric guitar stays in pristine condition for years to come.
