Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around Taylor’s Grand Orchestra body, this limited Catch Custom pairs a torrefied Sitka spruce top with big leaf maple back and sides. The source describes a clear, responsive voice with substantial low end, brightness and a broad dynamic range for fingerpicking or assertive strumming. V-Class bracing is intended to increase volume and sustain while improving harmonic agreement. For amplified work, the ES2/TaylorSense system provides adjustable behind-the-saddle sensors, active bass and treble, volume control and a phase switch.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Moving between delicate fingerpicking and fuller strumming with a wide dynamic range.
- Stage or studio amplification where onboard volume, bass, treble and phase controls are useful.
