Watch
Why it matters
Grand Pacific is a body shape rather than a single model: Taylor built it as a round-shoulder dreadnought with V-Class bracing. The 317e is one of the current versions, and Guitar Center lists it at $2,199. Because the shape spans several series, the price depends on which model number a listing names.
