Description
Taylor Benchmark Custom Gold Label Deep Body Dreadnought Adirondack Spruce and Indian Rosewood
Serial Number 1207306100 | Deep Body Dreadnought | Adirondack spruce top | Indian rosewood back and sides
If the goal is a big rosewood dreadnought voice, this one gets there without sacrificing control. Adirondack spruce gives the guitar a fast attack and plenty of headroom, while Indian rosewood brings the deep bass, ringing top end and harmonic richness players expect from this pairing. The Deep Body design adds even more reach and projection. Strummed chords sound huge, but there is enough separation to keep busy voicings and single-note passages clear.
Taylor's fanned V-Class bracing and tonal rout help organize all that energy, adding sustain without letting the response become loose. A thin high-response varnish keeps the guitar lively under the hands. Continental inlays, Gotoh 510 tuners, bone appointments and a hot-hide-glue bridge joint give this classic tonewood combination the level of finish and precision it deserves.
About Taylor Benchmark Custom:
A Sound First Approach
Taylor Benchmark Custom is a new class of ultra-premium guitar shaped by Chief Guitar Designer Andy Powers’ experience building bespoke instruments for individual musicians. Each guitar begins with a specific musical objective rather than a list of premium features. That intended voice and feel guide the selection of the body shape, soundboard, braces and tonewoods, with every component considered as part of a complete musical system. A Custom Shop Luthier oversees the guitar throughout the build, working with Taylor’s most experienced craftspeople to preserve that original vision through final setup and inspection. Empire Music is the official launch partner with Taylor for the introduction of the Benchmark Custom program.
Materials Voiced to Work Together
The Benchmark process places as much emphasis on how materials work together as it does on the quality of the individual pieces. Soundboards are evaluated for characteristics such as stiffness, weight and grain structure, then paired with braces selected to complement the top and the natural response of the body shape. Additional hand-sanding and precision fitting create closer connections between the soundboard, braces, kerfing and body. Traditional hot hide glue is used at key structural joints, including the bracing and bridge, where its hard, thin bond helps transfer vibrational energy efficiently through the instrument.
Taylor High Response Varnish
Taylor developed a proprietary high-response varnish specifically for Benchmark Customs. This ultrasoft, low-density gloss finish is applied exceptionally thin to preserve flexibility and minimize damping, contributing to a warm, open response. The finish is then hand-leveled, polished and burnished for a sleek luster and an exceptionally smooth feel. Hand-applied, multi-color stains give each instrument additional depth and individual character.
Refined by Hand
That level of attention continues through final assembly. The nut, saddle and bridge pins are individually fitted and detailed. The fretboard edges and frets receive additional handwork for a softer feel and smoother string bending. Each completed guitar is inspected by the Custom Shop Luthier who oversaw its construction and includes a handwritten Certificate of Authenticity signed by Andy Powers. These details work together to give a Benchmark Custom its immediate response, dynamic range and distinctly refined connection between the instrument and the player.
We are proud to include a full professional setup to factory spec before delivering your new Taylor Benchmark Custom. Our world-class techs will dial in your guitar to make sure the playability is maximized!
