Lush, Warm Tone at an Accessible Price - The Taylor 414ce Studio Acoustic Guitar

Crafted with all-solid tonewoods, striking appointments and an easy-playing Taylor neck, the new 414ce Studio offers pro-quality tone and feel at an appealing price for the budget-minded player. This model features back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, voiced with our V-Class bracing. It adds up to a high-fidelity sound with clear, bell-like trebles, a robust low-end response and rich harmonic texture, plus an added dash of warmth from our proprietary roasting process for the spruce top. With the Grand Auditorium body shape, players can expect a highly adaptable tone that performs well across virtually all genres and playing styles, while the slender Taylor neck ensures relaxed fretting across the frequency spectrum. It includes ES2 electronics for rich, clear plugged-in sound and ships with a resilient structured gig bag for storage and transportation.
