The Story

Custom Shop Grand Auditorium 12-Fret Hawaiian Koa Shaded Edgeburst

This might be our very favorite from our batch of Zoo-spec'd Taylor Custom Shop guitars: a 12-Fret Grand Auditorium of gorgeous AA-grade Hawaiian koa with a Shaded Edgeburst finish and Florentine cutaway. The guitar has a Shaded Edgeburst gloss finish with a smooth satin-finished figured mahogany neck and a Spring Vine inlaid ebony fretboard. The 12-Fret neck makes this guitar have a very slinky feel and a round bass, it's one of our favorites for fingerstyle playing. Of course, that koa is going to open up over the years to come, which is hard to believe since it already sounds so good!

Includes: Hardshell Case and Paperwork
