This Taylor custom-built Grand Auditorium is a premium expression of the company’s craftsmanship, centered around a stunning all–Master Hawaiian Koa construction. With a gloss natural finish over the koa top, back, and sides, the guitar carries a rich golden-brown visual warmth that deepens beautifully with age and use. The four-piece back adds an extra touch of custom-shop elegance, while details like the bound soundhole, cocobolo rosette, and Celtic inlays in abalone and mother-of-pearl give the instrument a refined, one-of-a-kind identity.

Master Hawaiian Koa offers a voice that blends focused midrange presence with clear trebles and a sweet, controlled low end. Newer koa guitars often sound articulate and lively, then continue to open up over time into a warmer, richer, more complex instrument. In the Grand Auditorium body shape, that translates into exceptional versatility and equally comfortable for fingerstyle detail, vocal accompaniment, and balanced strumming. Taylor’s Sitka V-Class bracing adds projection, sustain, and more even intonation across the neck, helping every note ring with clarity.

The Standard Carve mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard make the guitar feel as refined as it looks, with an effortless Taylor-style playing experience that suits long sessions and precise technique alike. Premium hardware like Gotoh 510 antique gold tuners adds smooth tuning stability, while the Expression System 2 electronics provide a natural amplified tone ready for stage or studio use. Available at Haggerty’s Music, this custom Taylor is a showcase piece that combines visual artistry, rare koa tonewoods, and modern playability in a truly special build.
