Taylor NAMM 2025 Custom #6 C14ce Bearclaw Sitka Spruce/Blackheart Sassafras Grand Auditorium Acoustic Electric Guitar – #1204255101

Taylor Elegance – The Taylor NAMM 2025 Custom #6 C14ce Bearclaw Sitka Spruce/Blackheart Sassafras Grand Auditorium Acoustic Electric Guitar

Featuring two gorgeously figured blonde tonewoods in a cutaway, gloss-finished Grand Auditorium body, this custom model emphasizes the natural beauty of its carefully selected woods while offering incredible musical versatility. Pairing black limba back and sides with a Bearclaw Sitka spruce top yields a versatile, warm and articulate tone that responds well to various playing styles and techniques, with V-Class bracing on board to dial up extra volume and sustain along with improved intonation. Bloodwood takes center stage with an appointment package that includes a comfort-enhancing beveled armrest, single-ring rosette, binding, purfling, back strip, backstrap, heel cap, truss rod cover and our legacy LB fretboard inlays (inspired by luthier and Taylor collaborator Larry Breedlove) framed in abalone. A green abalone peghead logo and ebony bridge pins with abalone dots finish off the visual details. Equipped for the studio and stage, this custom build is outfitted with ES2 electronics and Taylor satin black tuners, and ships with a brown deluxe hardshell case.
