Visually, this model is appointed to inspire, with a custom shaded edgeburst top treatment complemented by a three-ring rosette, classic 4mm dot fretboard inlays, faux-tortoiseshell pickguard and full-body gloss finish.
Features
A Glowing Top Color Channels a Warm Midrange Voice
This beautifully appointed Grand Auditorium serves up a warm, woody midrange character accented with striking visual details.

Grand Auditorium
Our flagship shape offers comfort and cross-genre utility, with a clear, balanced tone suited for both fingerstyle and strumming.

Sapele
One of the best all-around tonewoods there is, sapele will deliver for any playing style.

Mahogany
The hardwood top produces strong fundamentals with clarity and focus.

Expression System® 2
The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.

V-Class Bracing
Our patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
