Offering a yin-and-yang contrast to its maple counterpart, this custom Grand Auditorium is crafted with back, sides and top of gorgeous AA-grade figured Hawaiian Koa. Together with Taylor's V-Class bracing architecture to boost volume and sustain, this all-koa guitar yields a lively midrange attack with clear trebles and a dash of low-end presence that will grow deeper and sweeter as the wood matures. The alluring reddish hues of this beautiful batch of koa are set off with flamed maple accents for the bevelled armrest, backstrap, heel cap, backstrip and body/soundhole binding, with maple purfling along the fretboard and peghead and a maple tail strip. A green abalone rosette, polished bronze tuners, dark-stained bone bridge pins, Reflections fretboard inlays in green abalone and a honey/amber aged toner colour treatment (entire guitar) with a gloss-finish body complete the appointment package.
