Taylor Fall Limited Cocobolo GCe Grand Concert

Taylor Guitars is celebrating fall with an exciting array of 2008 Fall Limited Editions, which feature two of the world's most beautiful and sought-after tonewoods, Hawaiian koa and Mexican cocobolo. In a unique touch for Taylor, the 2008 Fall Limited Editions have Adirondack spruce bracing, a sound enhancement that company President Bob Taylor calls "magical." "All the notes across the spectrum become both more powerful and sweeter with Adirondack," says Taylor. "It has a curious elasticity which is really exploited when we use it for bracing." The 2008 Fall Limiteds are offered in two distinct koa/cocobolo combinations; for instance, a Koa GS Limited will have exquisite, shimmering Hawaiian koa back and sides, and a mini back-wedge and binding of reddish-orange cocobolo. On a Cocobolo GS Limited, the woods are reversed, with swirling red-figured cocobolo forming the back and sides, and visual accents provided by a koa mini-wedge and koa binding. Non-cutaway Koa GS Limited and Cocobolo GS Limiteds are also available. Taylor's popular Grand Auditorium body shape is well-represented in the 2008 Fall Limited lineup by the Koa GA Limited and Cocobolo GA Limited, and small-bodied, non-cutaway Grand Concerts, the Koa GC Limited and Cocobolo GC Limited, are also available, with a choice of either Taylor's classic crowned peghead, or an elegant slotted headstock. All 2008 Fall Limited Editions have a Sitka spruce top, a cocobolo backstrap, delicate pinstripe binding along the fretboard and peghead. Appointments include Gold Gotoh tuners; bone nut and saddle and abalone top. All Taylor 2008 Fall Limiteds come with Taylor's Expression System® pickup, for premium quality amplified acoustic sound.
