Solid rosewood and Sitka spruce, together with our versatile Grand
Auditorium shape, translate into a classic workhorse instrument
for fans of rosewood’s deep lows and sparkling highs. Scalloped
V-Class bracing and the long-tenon neck add more warmth and
richness across the tonal spectrum, especially in the mids. Gigging
players will love the onboard Claria electronics, which make it easy
to shape their amplified sound for any performance setting.

Long-Tenon Action Control Neck
Enhanced warmth. Effortless adjustability.
Debuting on the Gold Label Collection in 2025, our innovative new
neck design now comes to the Grand Auditorium. The long-tenon
neck joint improves the neck-to-body connection, adding warmth
and depth to the guitar’s voice. At the same time, the Action Control
feature makes adjusting string height quicker and more precise than
ever — no need to remove strings or the neck. Players can dial in
their preferred setup in seconds and adapt on the fly to changing
styles or shifting climate conditions. It’s the ultimate fusion of tone,
stability and setup convenience.

Scalloped V-Class Bracing
Fuller low end and more open-string richness
The latest evolution of Taylor’s V-Class bracing introduces a scalloped
profile that unlocks a warmer low end and richer open-string resonance,
while preserving the balance, pitch accuracy and projection that
define V-Class. The guitars are now seasoned with a touch of low-
end depth that adds more fullness to the voice.

Claria System Acoustic Electronics
Easy, reliable amplified tone for any live setting
Developed with extensive input from touring artists and live sound
engineers, Taylor’s new Claria System reimagines the under-saddle
piezo pickup to deliver consistent plug-and-play acoustic tone in
any setting. A proprietary preamp tames the harshness of traditional
piezos and incorporates soundhole-mounted controls: Volume, Tone
and a versatile Mid-Contour knob. The result is consistent, stage-
ready tone that’s easy to shape for any setting — from solo café gigs
to large-venue performances.
