Grand Pacific
Taylors 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 Taylors V-Class bracing, the Grand Pacific pumps out clear low-end power, making the Grand Pacifics voice more musical and usable, while remaining as versatile as a Grand Auditorium and as assertive as a traditional dreadnought.

Custom Appointments
Custom appointments include a mahogany neck with a satin finish, a four-piece Simmons Wedge AA Indian Rosewood back and sides (with matching backstrap), a West African Crelicam ebony headstock veneer, figured Hawaiian Koa binding, a Koa/Maple Split Diamond rosette, Boxwood Element fingerboard inlays, Gotoh 510 Antique Gold tuners with AA Indian Rosewood buttons, ebony bridge pins, and a natural gloss finish to showcase the beauty of its Adirondack Sitka Spruce top with aged toner.

V-Class Bracing
This Taylor Custom Grand Pacific model features Taylors innovative 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.

ES2 Electronics
The Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) delivers the latest technology in Taylor acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the ES2 system is Taylors patented behind-the-saddle pickup, featuring three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The new positioning enables the piezo pickups crystals to respond more naturally to the guitars 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 Taylors custom-designed preamp, this ES2 system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness.
