Taylor 314ce
Overview
The Taylor 314ce is an all-solid-wood grand auditorium acoustic-electric guitar that occupies a sweet spot in Taylor's lineup, offering professional-grade tone and playability for serious players. It features a solid Sitka spruce top with solid sapele back and sides, a tropical mahogany neck, and a 20-fret ebony fingerboard with Taylor's signature Expression System 2 electronics. The all-solid construction delivers noticeably improved resonance, sustain, and tonal complexity compared to laminate-backed models, with the sapele providing a warm, focused midrange character with balanced bass and clear, singing highs. Taylor's V-Class bracing increases both volume and sustain while improving intonation across the fingerboard " a tangible playing advantage. The grand auditorium body shape ensures versatility, performing equally well with a pick or fingers, for solo playing or accompaniment. Build quality is outstanding, with precise fretwork, clean binding, gloss finish on the top, and satin finish on the back and sides. This guitar is suited for performing and recording musicians who want a reliable, great-sounding instrument that excels in amplified settings. The sapele tonewood, while warm and pleasant, does not deliver the low-end depth of rosewood, which some players may miss.
