Introducing the 50th Anniversary limited-edition 314ce, a pinnacle celebration of Taylor’s half-century legacy.
Crafted as part of a commemorative suite of models, this Grand Auditorium 314ce receives premium updates to elevate its already popular design. The torrefied spruce top introduces an extra dimension of responsiveness and warmth to its musical personality. The special roasting process slightly darkens the Sitka soundboard, enhancing its vintage character, further accentuated by an artfully sprayed shaded edgeburst around the body and neck. A firestripe faux-tortoise pickguard adds a bold visual touch, complemented by gold Taylor tuners and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots.
Aesthetic details include a 3-ring rosette with contrasting black and white purfling, black body binding, Gemstone fretboard/peghead inlays in Italian Acrylic, and a rich full-gloss body. The guitar proudly features a freshly designed commemorative 50th-anniversary label.
Sonically, the combination of the torrefied top and Taylor’s V-Class voicing architecture delivers range-roving musical versatility. The Grand Auditorium delights players with signature Taylor balance and clarity, accompanied by pleasing warmth, projection, and sustain. The trademark playability of the Taylor neck ensures a captivating experience from the first strum. Onboard ES2 electronics provide seamless amplification, and the guitar comes complete with a Taylor deluxe hard shell case.
With a limited production of 1,974 guitars worldwide, this 314ce stands as an elegant and beautifully crafted musical tool, promising years of inspiring musical pursuits.
