The Taylor Custom Shop Grand Auditorium Thin Body brings together striking stage presence, effortless playability, and the clear, expressive voice Taylor is known for. A Sitka spruce top pairs with big leaf maple back and sides to deliver a lively, articulate sound with crisp highs, focused mids, and a balanced response that lets individual notes shine through. Taylor’s V-Class bracing helps the guitar produce impressive sustain and a more consistent, resonant voice across the fingerboard, making it equally suited to delicate fingerpicking and full, ringing chords. Finished in transparent black gloss, the body has a sleek, dramatic look, complemented by white binding and a green abalone rosette that adds a subtle flash of color.

Built for comfort and easy movement, the thin-body Grand Auditorium design sits naturally against you whether you’re playing seated or standing under stage lights. The slim hard rock maple neck offers a smooth, comfortable feel, while the West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard provides a solid, responsive playing surface. Custom faux pearl inlays bring a distinctive touch to the fingerboard, and the Florentine cutaway opens up access to the upper frets for expressive leads and more adventurous arrangements. Satin black tuning machines complete the understated look, while ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots tie the hardware details back to the guitar’s elegant visual design.

When it’s time to plug in, Taylor’s Expression System 2 electronics capture the guitar’s natural character and translate it into a clear, balanced amplified tone that works beautifully for live performance and recording. The combination of spruce and maple gives the Taylor Custom Shop Grand Auditorium Thin Body a focused, articulate voice that sits comfortably in a mix, while its slim profile and refined neck make it a pleasure to play through long sets. With its distinctive finish, premium materials, and stage-ready electronics, this Custom Shop instrument offers a compelling blend of visual sophistication and practical performance. Available now at Haggerty's Music.
