Default Beautiful Guitar

https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q...1&&FORM=VRDGAR

This guy is great and the sound of that beautiful guitar. It reminds me of the Taylor Grand Symphony (all koa) I used to own. Can anyone here set up my poor old Gibson J50 to sound like that!

Is that a Grand Symphony or a Grand Orchestra Taylor?

I don't think that is a Taylor?

Judging by the bridge and the headstock shape, it’s a Taylor. One of those custom jumbo ones, not sure of the model name. I usually see them on reverb around the 3-4000 range if that helps, which it probably won’t.

You might be right - I checked out his other clips, bridge and head shape look very Taylor (as Scoobtay mentions above) but there's no name on the headstock.
Custom BTO?

Modeled after a Taylor Jumbo:

The steel-string acoustic guitar was made by master luthiers Roman Torgov and Mikhail Medvedev (Saint-Petersburg 2013). It's modeled after a Taylor "Jumbo" acoustic.
It's made from Caucasian alpine spruce and Indian rosewood. This instrument has a unique sound duration (sustain), deep timbre and rich lower midrange.
I also use it in solo performances and in the group SAMHEY

If there is a way of translating this to English it will probably tell us more about the guitar origin.
