This is an exceptionally rare, highly flamed, premium-grade Hawaiian Koa custom Grand Auditorium guitar. The wood for this masterpiece was carefully hand-selected specifically for our shop, showcasing the advantages of our 37-year partnership with Taylor Guitars. Among the finest sets of Koa we’ve ever had, the top and back are flawlessly book-matched, making it nearly impossible to find a more perfect specimen. This instrument is nothing short of a museum-quality work of art, crafted by the renowned Taylor Custom Shop.
Its elegant design features exquisite abalone detailing, including top trim and a rosette that perfectly complement the guitar’s natural beauty. The West African Ebony fingerboard, bridge, binding, and beveled armrest add to its luxurious appeal. The intricate Tropical Vine inlay, made from select abalone and mother-of-pearl, further enhances the visual splendor of this heirloom-worthy piece.
This guitar isn’t just a showpiece—it’s designed with tone and performance in mind. Hawaiian Koa, a dense tropical hardwood, delivers a distinctive tonal character, blending a focused midrange with bright, chime-like highs. Over time, as the wood matures and opens up, the sound becomes richer, with warm, sweet midrange overtones. The Grand Auditorium body shape, combined with Taylor’s signature neck design, ensures effortless playability and world-class tone.
Equipped with Taylor’s innovative V-Class Bracing, this guitar offers enhanced sustain, increased volume, and impeccable intonation. The highly flamed Koa not only looks stunning but is also an exceptional tonewood, delivering incredible sound straight out of the box. Imagine how it will evolve with age and use—truly a future family heirloom. Your dream guitar has arrived.
