Elevate your acoustic experience with the Taylor Custom Shop GA-9 9-String Grand Auditorium, a meticulously crafted instrument that blends premium materials with thoughtful design. Hand-selected AA koa back and sides paired with a custom wood top form the tonal foundation of this 9-string Grand Auditorium, offering a distinctive voice with rich overtones and balanced clarity. The Venetian cutaway allows smooth upper-fret access, while the mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard provide a sleek, responsive feel. Visual elegance comes through in the Mother of Pearl “Diamonds, Large Engraved” fretboard inlays, single-ring abalone rosette, and a gloss finish across the body and peghead. Purpose-built with Sitka 9-string bracing, a slim carve neck profile, and Taylor’s renowned Expression System 2 electronics, this guitar is designed for both nuanced acoustic performance and reliable stage presence. Includes a Taylor hardshell case for protection—and it’s available now at Haggerty’s Music.
