Description
The Taylor 314ce Special Edition Grand Auditorium guitar is an excellent all-purpose acoustic guitar made in the great state of California. Normally, the 314ce features a sapele back and sides construction, however this particular model is built around a tried-and-true classic Indian rosewood back and sides.
Taylor Guitars are all about Finding your Fit, and a spruce top/Indian rosewood back and sides acoustic is long favored by singer/songwriters and for vocal accompaniment. The character of the Indian rosewood is noted for emphasizing the crispness of the low and high frequencies it produces, without being accentuated in the midrange and stepping on the vocalist's frequencies in a natural recording or performance environment.
This guitar additionally showcases versatility and being an "all around" guitar in featuring the Grand Auditorium shape. With both a comfortable physical fit as well as an incredibly adaptable sonic range, this Special Edition 314ce is ideal for nearly any musician whether live or in the studio.
The 300 series is Taylor's first in line of full solid wood El Cajon, California-made guitars. They are known for a less intricate or embroidered style, with simpler binding and inlay figuring, though they are nothing short of the quality expected in a Taylor guitar. Spruce top 300 series Taylors are noted for featuring a gloss nitrocellulose top finish and satin back and sides finish.
Outside of the tonewood selections, this 314ce Special Edition Grand Auditorium is equipped with respected Taylor build elements such as a solid Tropical Mahogany neck, West African Crelicam Ebony fingerboard and bridge pins, 1.75" Tusq nut, Taylor V-Class Bracing, and of course the flagship Taylor ES2 Expression System electronics package.
The Taylor 314ce Special Edition Grand Auditorium acoustic guitar is an excellent choice for guitar players of a multitude of styles and is ready for the studio, stage, and songwriting sessions alike.
