The Striped Sinker Redwood top on this custom Taylor Grand Auditorium has been waiting at the bottom of a Northern California river for a century, absorbing minerals and a character you just can’t get from fresh-cut wood. Paired with a stunning Walnut back and sides, this instrument delivers a tone that’s as deep and complex as its history. It’s an heirloom-quality guitar built for the discerning player who understands that some things are worth the wait.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe Voice of Sinker Redwood \u0026amp; Walnut\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey call Sinker Redwood “cedar on steroids,” and for good reason. It has all the warmth, responsiveness, and rich overtones of cedar, but with a bolder, more brilliant attack and a higher volume ceiling. The Walnut back and sides provide the perfect counterpoint, blending the woody focus of mahogany with the clarity and low-end warmth of rosewood. The result is an incredibly balanced, articulate voice that excels at everything from delicate fingerstyle to expressive strumming.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eV-Class Bracing: The Engine Inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBeneath that incredible top lies Andy Powers’ revolutionary V-Class bracing. This internal architecture is a game-changer, allowing the top to vibrate more freely and in a more orderly fashion. What you’ll hear is a dramatic increase in volume and sustain, but the real magic is in the intonation. Chords ring truer all the way up the neck, with a harmonic agreement between notes that’s simply stunning. It’s a more musical, more inspiring playing experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eStage-Ready Tone with the Claria™ System\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeveloped with feedback from touring musicians and sound engineers, the Claria™ electronics system is designed to translate the guitar’s natural acoustic voice with stunning accuracy. This reimagined under-saddle piezo system, paired with a proprietary preamp, tames the harsh frequencies often associated with acoustic pickups. The soundhole-mounted controls for Volume, Tone, and Mid-Contour are intuitive and powerful, making it easy to dial in a perfect live sound in any venue.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43076905926699,"sku":"C14CE B6028","price":5999.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1596\/1267\/files\/TAYLOR-C14CE-B6023-CUSTOM-GA-1203246092-front.jpg?v=1781030198","url":"https:\/\/midbellmusic.com\/products\/custom-series-28-grand-auditorium-a-e-guitar-sinker-redwood-top-walnut-back-sides-koa-binding-brown-sugar-natural-gloss-finish-c14ce-b6028","provider":"Ray's Midbell Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
