This fingerstyle-friendly Grand Concert boasts the classic tonewood pairing of Indian rosewood back and sides with a Sitka spruce top, and like other Grand Concert body styles, features a slightly shorter 24-7/8-inch scale length to make reaching and fretting notes easier.

The compact body is matched by a sonic footprint that will keep the overtones in check, giving the guitar clear tonal definition that works well both for solo and ensemble playing.

Taylor’s Expression System 2 pickup delivers natural-sounding amplified tone for gigging or recording. Aesthetic details include white binding, Italian acrylic dot fretboard inlays, a three-ring rosette, and satin finish back and sides with a gloss top. The guitar ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case — available at Music 6000 for $1799!
