The Taylor Custom C17e B5002 is a NAMM 2025 Special Edition built for players who appreciate bold tone and refined aesthetics. Featuring a hand-selected Adirondack spruce top finished in Midnight Burst, paired with Honduran rosewood back and sides, this Grand Pacific delivers a warm, rounded low end with the kind of headroom and dynamic range that flatpickers and singer-songwriters will love. Taylors V-Class bracing architecture enhances the tonal clarity, projection, and sustainmaking this guitar equally inspiring in the studio or on stage.
A Victorian inlay suite in faux pearl adds vintage charm to the ebony fretboard, complemented by ivoroid binding, a firestripe faux tortoise pickguard, and smoked nickel tuners. The subtle shaded edgeburst on the back, sides, and neck creates a moody contrast against the rich Midnight Burst top. It ships in a Western Floral tooled leather deluxe Taylor case and includes onboard Expression System 2 electronics for stage-ready sound.
