Taylor Taylor Custom "B. Taylor" Grand Auditorium in Ironbark with Sitka Spruce Top

Description

This beautiful custom Taylor Grand Auditorium was custom designed by Bob Taylor and The Guitar Sanctuary. All of the woods used in its construction were hand selected by Bob Taylor himself during a visit to the Taylor Guitars factory by our own Brian Meader to design a series of very custom guitars. Brian and Bob picked out special woods for each, and Brian posed the question to Bob for each: "What would YOU build with this?". The result are the first ever series of guitars to bear Bob's personal signature on the back of each guitar with the custom "B Taylor" inlay. This specific piece features Highly Figured Urban Ironbark back and sides pair with a Premium Sitka Spruce Top, Florentine Cutaway, and Spiked Oval inlays done in Grained Ivoroid and Ironbark to match the back and sides. Photos are of the actual guitar for sale, SN 1205205102.
