Grand Pacific

A complete reinterpretation of the traditional dreadnought, with a sound character totally different from anything else in the Taylor lineup, the Grand Pacific’s unique rounded-shoulder silhouette — a concept by master luthier Andy Powers — is a true cauldron of sound. Lush colors, a distinct blend of notes, and deep warmth, all encouraged by the revolutionary V-Class bracing system.
Whether you’re a traditionalist looking for a classic look or seeking the appeal of something completely different — with a seductive, bold, and versatile tonal profile, excellent playing comfort, and classic Taylor playability — the Grand Pacific will meet your expectations.
