Taylor Custom Shop Grand Pacific Western Red Cedar and Walnut 2023
This is a very lightly used and in overall excellent condition 2023 Taylor Grand Pacific built from tonewood that was handpicked at the Taylor factory in El Cajon, California. The guitar is still in overall excellent condition with the original case included. We went with a Grand Pacific body shape built of western red cedar for the top paired with walnut for the back and sides as well as a figured mahogany neck! Walnut is similar to koa in its density and stiffness that give a bright and snappy treble, but there's a more present midrange that 'splits the difference between rosewood and mahogany'. The western red cedar is less dense than spruce and has a nice softness to it - there's a bit of a ceiling to the volume of cedar that acts like a natural compressor as you drive it harder. For cosmetics, we went a unique way with this guitar: eye-catching bloodwood for the binding and rosette, with Diamond fretboard inlays carved from bloodwood and ivoroid.
