The Taylor Custom Shop C17e B6040 2026 Catch Custom #40 Gold Label Grand Pacific is the kind of guitar that stops you mid-strum. Built in a deep-body Grand Pacific shape, it delivers that seasoned, broken-in warmth players chase for years—only this one has it from day one. The Adirondack spruce top, finished in a striking Charcoal gloss, pairs beautifully with East Indian rosewood back and sides in a Kona edgeburst, creating a visual contrast that feels both modern and timeless. Every detail, from the Crelicam ebony binding to the single-ring wood and shell rosette with celluloid and fiber purfling, reflects the Custom Shop’s commitment to refined craftsmanship. This standout instrument is available now at Haggerty’s Music.

Under the hood, Fanned V-Class bracing brings remarkable balance and projection to the Grand Pacific’s naturally warm voice. The result is powerful low-end support, clear trebles, and impressive sustain that holds together whether you’re flatpicking hard or laying into open-chord rhythms. The two-piece rosewood back enhances clarity and depth, while the curve wing ebony bridge and Tusq saddle ensure optimal energy transfer and tuning stability. With no cutaway, this model leans fully into its classic acoustic identity—big, bold, and resonant.

The neck is designed for effortless playability. A standard carve profile in neo-tropical mahogany, finished in gloss with a heel burst, feels smooth and substantial without being bulky. Measuring 0.859 inches at the first fret and 0.880 inches at the ninth, it offers a comfortable grip for long sessions. The 25.5-inch scale length, 1-3/4-inch nut width, and 2-3/16-inch spacing provide room for articulate fingerstyle work while remaining friendly for strummers. West African Crelicam ebony on the fingerboard and bridge, accented with shell paua Century inlays and a matching shell paua headstock logo and crest, complete the upscale aesthetic.

Plugged in, the Claria electronics system captures the guitar’s natural voice with clarity and dimension, making it stage-ready without sacrificing its organic character. Gotoh Luxury Gold tuners with gold buttons add a touch of elegance and dependable precision, while bone bridge pins with dark stain and Australian opal green dots provide a subtle custom detail. Housed in a Taylor Deluxe hardshell case in British Cocoa, this Custom Shop creation is built to travel in style. Experience it for yourself at Haggerty’s Music and discover a Grand Pacific that feels as inspiring as it sounds.
