Taylor 314ce Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar
The Taylor 314ce delivers exceptional tone, playability, and versatility—ideal for stage, studio, or home. With its Grand Auditorium body, solid Sitka spruce top, and solid sapele back and sides, this U.S.-made Taylor balances clarity, warmth, and dynamic range. The V-Class bracing adds more sustain and volume while improving intonation across the fretboard, making this one of the most popular acoustic-electric guitars in Taylor's lineup.
Solid Sitka Spruce Top for Versatile Tone
The solid Sitka spruce top is the most popular tonewood choice for acoustic guitars, and for good reason. It delivers crisp articulation, strong projection, and excellent dynamic range that responds to both delicate fingerpicking and aggressive strumming. Sitka spruce offers a balanced tonal profile with clear highs, present midrange, and solid bass response—making it ideal for players who perform across multiple musical styles.
Solid Sapele Back and Sides for Warmth and Focus
Solid sapele back and sides provide a focused midrange with warm, woody character similar to mahogany but with slightly more brightness and clarity. This tonewood combination delivers excellent note definition and balanced frequency response, making the 314ce perfect for recording, live performance, and solo playing. Sapele's consistent tonal qualities ensure reliable performance night after night.
