Taylor Custom Grand Auditorium C24ce Ribbon Mahogany Shaded Edgeburst Catch # 50
At this year's NAMM show in Anaheim, Taylor put on an unforgettable dealer event on the rooftop of a hotel, showing a set of extremely limited and special guitars, known as the Catch Event. Here, dozens of one-of-a-kind Taylor guitars were displayed. We had the opportunity to participate and were fortunate to score a few guitars - this is one of them.
Here are at Truetone Music, we are proud to be a part of this, and now proudly present this Taylor Custom Grand Auditorium. Finished with a visually striking finish over Ribbon Mahogany, this custom cutaway Grand Auditorium is quite the special guitar.
Featuring a versatile, accommodating cutaway Grand Auditorium body, the guitar is crafted with back, sides and top of beautifully variegated Ribbon Mahogany. This custom model produces a woody acoustic voice and a captivating visual aesthetic. Rich midrange tones with a strong fundamental focus and minimal overtones are complemented by the warmth and natural compression of the mahogany soundboard, while the innovative V-Class voicing architecture produces louder volume, longer sustain and improved harmony all the way up the neck.
The gloss-finished body and satin-sheen mahogany neck and peghead boast a dusky, hand-sprayed shaded edgeburst color treatment. We love how Taylor did this one, and after one look at the photos, we think you will as well.
Other standout visual details include Island Vine fretboard and peghead inlays in Hawaiian koa and maple, a Hard Rock maple peghead logo, black body binding, a single-ring black/maple rosette, and a firestripe pickguard. Outfitted with satin black tuners and ES2 electronics, this inspiring custom build ships in a brown deluxe hardshell case.
Only a few of these were made, and we are excited to have this one - and it's the only one we'll have, so catch it while you can.
