L'Epicéa Sitka est le choix traditionnel pour la grande majorité des guitares acoustiques. Grâce à un équilibre parfait entre robustesse et élasticité, le Sitka génère un son direct et punchy, avec une articulation impeccable. Ces caractéristiques confèrent à cette essence une grande flexibilité sonore et une faculté d'adaptation à quasiment tous les styles de jeu : strumming, flatpicking ou fingerpicking.

Black Limba / Korina, a superior kind of Mahogany, delivers a powerful, beautifully balanced sound with punchy midrange focus and clear treble.

The Taylor's small-body Grand Concert debuted in 1984 to meet the needs of a new wave of adventurous acoustic fingerstyle players. In contrast to the traditionally darker, boomier voices of bigger body styles like dreadnoughts and jumbos, the GC’s compact size and tapered waist kept the overtones in check. It was also more comfortable to play while sitting down, and the guitar’s slightly wider neck gave players more room for complex fingerings. The GC’s smaller sonic footprint also fit cleanly in a mix with other instruments when tracking in the studio and with a band on stage, making it a useful tool for professional session and side players.
Current generation of GC models continues to accommodate fingerstylists with finger-friendly traits like a shorter 24 7/8-inch scale length, which makes fretting easier and adds a slightly slinkier feel on the strings due to the lighter string tension. If you feel more comfortable with a small body or favor controlled overtones, a Grand Concert is a great option.
