Sound Pure's Take

Condition: Used, Excellent

SP Luthier Notes: This instrument has been carefully inspected and, if necessary, serviced by our certified luthier to ensure it is in excellent playing condition.

The Taylor Custom Grand Auditorium is a versatile acoustic that delivers a balanced, articulate tone with plenty of clarity and depth. Its bear claw Sitka spruce top provides strong projection and detail, while the bocote back and sides add rich overtones and a slightly exotic character. The Grand Auditorium shape keeps it responsive for both strumming and fingerstyle, and the Expression System 2 makes it stage-ready. Smooth, dynamic, and easy to play, this custom build offers a clear, refined voice with a unique visual and tonal character.
