The Taylor Custom Shop 2025 Catch Event #43 Grand Auditorium is a celebration of craftsmanship, tonewood artistry, and performance-driven design—built exclusively for players who demand the extraordinary. Available now at Haggerty’s Music, this one-of-a-kind acoustic/electric guitar features AA-grade Hawaiian Koa for both the top and body, producing a shimmering, articulate tone with outstanding midrange warmth. Enhanced by Taylor’s V-Class bracing and refined with luxury appointments like a beveled ebony armrest and Mother-of-Pearl Nations inlays, it’s as visually breathtaking as it is musically inspiring. Complete with Gotoh 510 antique gold tuners with Koa buttons and Taylor’s Expression System 2 electronics, this guitar also includes a Taylor Deluxe Brown Hardshell Case for premium protection.
