As a Taylor Custom dealer, Chicago Music Exchange will work with you to help you choose from an assortment of Taylor’s finest tonewoods—including non-standard species and premium grades—as well as a rich palette of feature options and premium appointments that’ll help you bring your distinctive Taylor dream guitar to life!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHand-Picked Tonewoods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo give CME customers a truly next level Taylor acoustic, CME’s CEO Andrew Yonke and Director of New Product Dan Bordonaro went to the factory, themselves, and hand-selected the top on this Taylor Custom model. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eGrand Pacific\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFeaturing a figured mahogany back and sides, paired with a Bear Claw Lutz spruce top that’s received an “aged toner” treatment, accompanied with an easy-playing neck, sporting a soft V profile, Taylor’s Grand Pacific round-shoulder dreadnought is designed to deliver a different flavor of Taylor tone: a warm, seasoned voice in which notes overlap in a way that recalls traditional acoustic guitar recordings, requiring no studio enhancements. With Taylor’s V-Class bracing, the Grand Pacific pumps out clear low-end power, making the Grand Pacific’s voice more musical and usable, while remaining as versatile as a Grand Auditorium and as assertive as a traditional dreadnought.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eV-Class Bracing\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Taylor Custom Grand Pacific features Taylor’s innovative new V-Class bracing, which lets the soundboard of the guitar vibrate naturally, increasing sustain and overall cohesiveness, and generating additional volume without sacrificing sustain. This design puts the body more in tune with the strings, improving articulation and harmonic alignment,  resulting in a sound that is optimally warm and seasoned, nicely blended, and full of luscious low end without being muddy. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eES2 ELECTRONICS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) delivers the latest technology in Taylor acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the ES2 system is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, featuring three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The new positioning enables the piezo pickup’s crystals to respond more naturally to the guitar’s energy as it is transferred through the saddle, with three pickup sensors installed behind the saddle, through the bridge, with three tiny Allen screws that calibrate the position of the sensors in relation to the saddle. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed preamp, this ES2 system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSerial#\u003c\/b\u003e: 1207202169\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight\u003c\/b\u003e: 4lbs 8oz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eShape: \u003c\/b\u003eGrand Pacific\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCutaway: \u003c\/b\u003eNo Cutaway\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eArmrest:\u003c\/b\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBack \/ Sides:\u003c\/b\u003e Figured Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBack Config: \u003c\/b\u003e2-piece No Wedge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTop:\u003c\/b\u003e Lutz Spruce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFingerboard \/ Bridge:\u003c\/b\u003e Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck:\u003c\/b\u003e Mahogany, Figured\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeghead Veneer:\u003c\/b\u003e Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBracing:\u003c\/b\u003e Sitka V-Class Bracing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 1-11\/16\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 25-1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Profile: \u003c\/b\u003eV-Carve\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeghead Type: \u003c\/b\u003eStandard Peghead\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBack\/Side\/Top Finish:\u003c\/b\u003e Gloss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck Finish: \u003c\/b\u003eSatin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Material: \u003c\/b\u003eTortoiseshell (Faux)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRosette: \u003c\/b\u003eAbalone, Single Ring with Bound Soundhole\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeghead Logo Inlays:\u003c\/b\u003e Taylor Mother of Pearl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFretboard Inlays: \u003c\/b\u003e900 Series, MOP, (2001-2010)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeghead Inlays: \u003c\/b\u003e900 Series, MOP, (2001-2010)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge Inlays: \u003c\/b\u003e900 Series, MOP (2010)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTuners: \u003c\/b\u003eGotoh 510 Antique Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNut\/Saddle:\u003c\/b\u003e Bone Nut \/ Micarta Saddle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBridge Pins: \u003c\/b\u003eEbony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eElectronics:\u003c\/b\u003e Expression System 2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCase:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardshell","brand":"Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39950996209799,"sku":"TAYCUSTOM-12184-1207202169","price":4997.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/products\/taylor-acoustic-guitars-om-and-auditorium-taylor-custom-grand-pacific-figured-mahogany-bearclaw-lutz-spruce-aged-toner-natural-w-figured-mahogany-neck-tortoiseshell-binding-taycustom.jpg?v=1661447645","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.mom\/en-gb\/products\/taylor-custom-grand-pacific-figured-mahogany-bearclaw-1536659","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
