Taylor 414ce Studio Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar, Sitka Spruce/Indian Rosewood, Shaded Edgeburst

Playing with all the sound and style you've come to expect from Taylor, the Taylor 414ce Studio SEB is a Taylor classic in real time. Shaping up with a standby Grand Auditorium body shape, the 414ce Studio SEB has that iconic Taylor experience in hand and audibly.

Assembling in Taylor's tried-and-true fashion, this Taylor 414ce Studio SEB is a streamlined and clean acoustic guitar to take you anywhere. This all is possible due to a traditional tonewood combination that forms the basis for this guitar's sonic engine. A torrefied Sitka spruce top takes the starring role with its standby acoustic qualities – warm, bright, and balanced. Torrefaction, a process in which woods are heat-treated to bake out imperfections and impart an aged and lived-in quality, makes this Sitka spruce distinct and full of character. Indian rosewood assumes the role of this 414ce Studio SEB's back and sides, resulting in a tonally rich sound from the whole guitar.

It simply wouldn't be a Taylor acoustic without features built in for playability. A Neo-Tropical mahogany neck sprouts from the Grand Auditorium body bearing Taylor's Standard Carve profile. Making a perfect balance of fullness and slimness, this neck is effortlessly playable. Alongside its West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard, the 414ce Studio SEB is begging to be played.

Further considerations onboard this Studio model to make for an excellent experience include fine hardware specs like a white NuBone nut, Taylor Nickel tuning machines, and a West African Crelicam ebony bridge. These smaller considerations truly make the bigger additions bloom like Taylor's V-Class bracing system which bolsters projection and balance across the guitar's whole output. Onboard, this 414ce Studio features Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics that easily translate the sweet acoustic tones of this guitar to the stage. In addition, this guitar travels with an included Taylor structured gig bag for smooth trips from place to place.

In classic fashion, the 414ce Studio is a Taylor as you've always known it. Take on this Studio model and see for yourself.
