Taylor Custom GA Maple

Bearclaw Sitka Spruce on Solid Big Leaf Maple: the Custom GA that combines power and refinement in one instrument

Maple is a tonewood that doesn't whisper. The Taylor Custom GA Maple is a guitar with character: powerful, articulate, and with a driving sound that captivates you from the very first chord. Solid Big Leaf Maple back and sides, a Bearclaw Sitka Spruce top with V-Class bracing, and a finish that is perfect down to the smallest detail. Hawaiian Koa body binding, a beveled Hawaiian Koa armrest, and green abalone reflection inlays on the West African Crelicam ebony fretboard. This is a Custom Shop instrument that looks the part.

The sound of maple is direct and full of power, with a bright attack and a pronounced midrange that lends itself excellently to strumming and chord playing. The Bearclaw Sitka Spruce top adds dynamics and warmth, while the V-Class bracing with Relief Rout ensures perfect intonation across the entire fretboard and long-lasting sustain. But make no mistake: this guitar is anything but one-dimensional. There's enough nuance and warmth for more intimate work, thanks to the combination of tonewoods and the versatile Grand Auditorium body.

The Hard Rock Maple neck has a satin finish and transitions into an ebony fretboard with 20 frets on a 25.5" scale length. The Taylor Polished Bronze tuners with matching buttons are both beautiful and stable. The Expression System 2 pickup accurately translates the acoustic sound into amplified playing. Delivered with a Taylor Deluxe Hardshell case in brown.

The Taylor Custom GA Maple is an instrument for the player who wants to stand out, both visually and sonically. Come and play it and discover why maple and Bearclaw Spruce together are irresistible.
