Back in 2020, Taylor Guitars collaborated with Naughty Dog, the developer behind the enormously popular video game The Last of Us Part II, on a replica of the acoustic guitar used in-game by its protagonist, Ellie. Now, in a full-circle moment, that very same model will appear in the second season of the TV adaptation.
In a new two-minute trailer for the forthcoming HBO season, the custom Taylor 314ce Grand Auditorium gets a surprising amount of screentime, appearing in the hands of stars Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey, while there’s a closeup on the distinctive 3rd-fret moth inlay (thanks for the spot, MusicRadar).
