A custom Taylor c18e Grand Orchestra with Lutz Spruce top, Quilted Maple back/sides, and a Royal Blue Finish.

Taylor’s biggest, most complex voice is also balanced and responsive to a soft touch.

  • Our largest, most powerful body shape
  • Incredibly balanced for a big-bodied guitar
  • Specially voiced to be responsive to a heavy attack or a soft touch

The newest shape to join the Taylor family unleashes the boldest, richest voice available in a Taylor guitar. Just as the Grand Symphony yields a deeper, more powerful voice than the Grand Auditorium, the Grand Orchestra stands out as a more robust alternative to the Grand Symphony. The GO shape features a slightly bigger footprint and a deeper body, which helps produce a potent low-end response. Inside, we’ve upgraded the Grand Orchestra to feature V-Class bracing, specially adapted to the large body size to help control overtones while optimizing the way the guitar vibrates for louder volume, longer sustain, and a more in-tune sound overall.

What separates the Grand Orchestra from other big-bodied guitars is how balanced the tone is from top to bottom, especially given its brawny bass. And unlike other big-body guitars that require an aggressive attack to get the top moving, the GO is responsive to a light touch, rewarding players who have a dynamic playing style. If you crave a guitar sound that’s brimming with power and rich detail, the Grand Orchestra won’t disappoint. From big cowboy chords to lush fingerstyle arrangements, the Grand Orchestra might be the most expressive and versatile big guitar you ever play.
