Taylor Custom Grand Auditorium Acoustic Guitar Factory Visit Hand-Selected Wood - Torrefied Spruce/Black Limba

This guitar is a special custom built Grand Auditorium that we selected woods for with Andy Powers, Taylor CEO; during a factory visit. The goal was to create a guitar with a rich full sound with a lot of personality and unique aesthetics. A sharp florentine cutaway, artist fretboard inlays and dove inlay on the headstock a clear signs that this guitar is not a normal stock guitar. 

Photos of the wood selection as well as video of the process is available.
