“This guitar offers a one-of-a kind connection to the legacy of Joel, Ellie and the enduring spirit of survival”: Taylor capitalizes on The Last Of Us hype with a custom replica of the acoustic played by Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey on the hit HBO series

Here is a future to ponder. The world is brought to its knees, society collapses, the apocalypse visited upon us in the form of a fungal infection. Sounds terrible, right. And yet, you survived, and in this post-apocalyptic wasteland, the chances are you’ll be playing a high-end acoustic guitar made by the good people at Taylor.

Sounds far-fetched, but this is where we are at with prestige TV drama, and if you’ve been watching HBO’s The Last of Us you’ll recognize that this is the life that Pedro Pascal’s Joel Miller and Bella Ramsey’s Ellie Williams are living. And you can make your doomsday prepping every bit as musical, because Taylor has just unveiled an exacting replica of the 314e Grand Auditorium cutaway you see the pair play on the show.
