Taylor 314ce Sapele Back & Sides with V-Class Bracing Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Natural

Our Take:

The Taylor 314ce is a great Grand Auditorium with wonderful top-end response, and crystal-clear tone. Sapele back & sides provide a warm, full response, and the Sitka spruce top adds just the right amount of shimmer on top. In addition, the 314ce comes with a V-Class Bracing system, Taylor’s innovative way of giving players more volume, sustain and intonation across the instrument and improving the response of the soundboard. This guitar features a cutaway for versatility, ebony fretboard for smooth play, and dot inlays for that classic look. Wether you’re plugged-in on stage or unplugged in your bedroom, this is a quality instrument with durability and tone in mind.

Taylor's Take:

Our popular Grand Auditorium 314ce is an acoustic workhorse that performs equally well in the practice room, recording studio, and on stage. This latest edition features our acclaimed V-Class bracing, a revolutionary innovation in acoustic sound that responds with greater musicality and harmonic agreement. By introducing a more orderly vibration to the guitar’s top, V-Class bolsters the sustain and volume to offer players a more dynamic voice to explore, while also resolving the minor intonation issues that players have long had to contend with. Together with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, you can expect a balanced and articulate blend of top-end brightness, midrange fullness, and low-end warmth that accommodates an array of playing styles. Appointments include black binding, Gemstone fretboard/peghead inlays in Italian acrylic, and satin-finish back and sides with a gloss top. A Venetian cutaway invites your fretting hand up the neck, while our proprietary ES2 electronics serve up faithful plugged-in tone. The guitar ships in a deluxe hardshell case.
