2015 Taylor Folkway Custom GA
Built in 2015 as a limited run of Folkway-designed and spec’d custom Taylors, The Folkway Custom featured many design elements of Taylor's 2014 GA8 model (AKA 814) but with a cedar top, short-scale neck, bone nut and saddle, and was outfitted with a unique Taylor/ Folkway Custom label. There are 7 of these instruments in the world, so it’s not terribly easy to find a used one on the market!
This one is in near-perfect condition and is beautifully set up. It has had a K&K Pure Mini installed (by us, a few years back), and also features upgraded Gold Taylor tuning machines with black buttons, a Taylor tortoise-pattern pickguard, and an ebony strap button in the neck heel. The guitar has opened up wonderfully and is truly a remarkable sounding instrument. The combination of Taylor's Grand Auditorium Body, western red cedar top with CV X bracing, rosewood back and sides, short 24-7/8” scale neck, and bone nut and saddle make for an exceptional guitar. It's a fingerstyle dream, with amazing balance, strong trebles, great fundamental clarity, warmth through the bass and a lot of presence through the midrange.
With its unique label and history, outstanding tone, and classic Taylor playing ease, this Folkway Custom gets the highest of marks from us.
With original hardshell case
