One of a kind, exquisite, hand-picked Taylor custom guitar featuring the Grand Pacific dreadnought body shape. I was at the Taylor factory back in January picking out some amazing guitars. I wanted something really special so Andy Powers, Taylor CEO, and I decided to build two custom guitars from the ground up. He hand picked the wood from top to bottom. The only exception was the neck which was at a different department from the wood library. The result was this insane Grand Pacific and an equally insane Grand Concert in Western Cedar and Sassafras, which we have for sale as well.
He chose a premium Stripy Redwood Sinker top, Honduran Rosewood back and sides, and a striped ebony fingerboard. The solid redwood sinker top issourced from logs submerged in California riverbedsadds cedar-like warmth and touch sensitivity along with a high volume ceiling that’s great for aggressive players. The Honduran rosewood is beloved for its powerful, throaty low-end response and clear trebles, also producing lush overtones that bloom as notes resonate.
In addition, we added some striking features and appointments like the figured maple binding,Bloodwood, Single-ring with bound soundhole, Solitaires, Grained Ivoroid/Quilted Sapele, inlays on the fretboard and headstock, Gotoh 510 aged gold tuners, and an ebony backstrap.
The result is a one of a kind instrument any performer or collector will be proud to own. A shining star in the collection.
*Incredible instrument and price for this guitar. We need to move it out for more inventory.
