Description

Introducing the Super Auditorium, the next step in the evolution of the beloved Grand Auditorium body shape designed by Bob Taylor. This model maintains the versatility, balance, and clarity that players have cherished, while introducing innovative features thanks to the V-Class bracing architecture conceived by Andy Powers. With graceful curves that pay homage to Bob’s original design, the Super Auditorium boasts a slightly extended body and a broader lower bout. This combination not only offers a sense of familiarity but also infuses a fresh sonic experience reminiscent of classic guitars from the 1930s and '40s.

Designed with an emphasis on warmth, the Super Auditorium creates a rich, resonant voice that fills any space effortlessly. It responds beautifully to gentle touches, yet unlocks dynamic power when you play with more intensity. Inside, a fanned V-Class variant amplifies the guitar's depth and resonance, ensuring impressive volume and sustain while also maintaining precise pitch accuracy throughout the neck. 

For those seeking enhanced sound with every strum, the Super Auditorium is a perfect choice with a body length of 20 3/16 inches, a width of 16 1/4 inches, and a depth of 4 1/2 inches.

Features

  • Super Auditorium body yields deep, warm resonance
  • Big Leaf Maple back, sides and neck produce tight lush overtones
  • Torrefied spruce top adds projection and additional warmth
  • Long-tenon neck joint with exceptional adjustability
  • Includes LR Baggs Element VTC pickup and deluxe hardshell case
