Taylor

Crafted with hand-friendly design features, an inspiring tonewood pairing and a suite of celebratory appointments, the 50th Anniversary Builder’s Edition 314ce LTD offers exceptional comfort, playability, tone and aesthetics. This ultra-refined version of one of the best-selling U.S.-made acoustics boasts a bevy of comfort-enhancing features: a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body edges and a contoured Curve Wing bridge. Urban Ash back and sides, responsibly sourced from Southern California, produce midrange power and balance akin to high-quality Honduran mahogany. Its solid Sitka spruce top offers a warm, punchy midrange, crisp trebles and impressive low-end presence. The body, which sports a firestripe pickguard, is finished with a vintage-vibed Kona burst and our smooth Silent Satin sheen. Like other 50th Anniversary Collection guitars, this versatile cutaway Grand Auditorium features a commemorative label inside, ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots and premium Gotoh 510 antique gold tuners. It comes with ES2 electronics and ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.

With its gorgeous visual texture and shimmer, Big Leaf maple has always served up striking looks alongside its uniquely player-reflective sound. The 614ce Special Edition elevates that aesthetic appeal to new heights with five color choices that are sure to capture the attention of audiences on any stage. Like its standard-model sibling in the 600 Series, this Grand Auditorium boasts back and sides of solid figured Big Leaf maple paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, yielding a played-in sound with an extra dash of power and sustain coaxed out by the V-Class bracing architecture inside. Offering a warmer character than most maple guitars thanks to voicing touches developed by master guitar designer Andy Powers, the 614ce Special Edition responds differently to each player’s individual technique and style, letting musicians create a signature sound that’s all their own. For this release, we’ve opted for appointments that highlight the bold color palette, including white binding, a single-ring rosette in green abalone, Twisted Ovals fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, gold tuning machines, ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots, and a full-body gloss finish. Each model includes built-in ES2 electronics for clean amplified acoustic sound and a deluxe hardshell case for protection.

Urban Ash has carved out a niche for itself in the Taylor line as a premium back and side wood with a dry, focused midrange and balance akin to high-grade mahogany. Now, it’s debuting as a top wood in the 424ce LTD, a Grand Auditorium crafted with back, sides and top of solid Urban Ash. As a hardwood, Urban Ash delivers a natural compression effect that will sound familiar to players of mahogany or koa guitars, smoothing out the initial attack to yield a remarkably balanced profile across the frequency spectrum. This model serves up the same fundamental focus you would expect from mahogany—the note you play is the note you’ll hear, and the restrained overtone response makes the 424ce LTD a superstar in recording applications. Inside, the V-Class bracing generates its trademark blend of enhanced volume and sustain, coaxing greater musicality and tunefulness from this versatile guitar. Appointments for this limited-edition model match its 400 Series counterparts and include black binding, a three-ring black rosette, Renaissance fretboard and peghead inlays in Italian acrylic, a black pickguard, Taylor satin black tuners, and a natural gloss finish that showcases the natural blonde hue and grain of Urban Ash. It ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.

With its versatile Grand Auditorium body shape and classic tonewood pairing, the 414ce is all set to perform in a wide range of musical applications. Rosewood back and sides matched with a Sitka spruce top serve up warm lows, pristine highs and a slightly scooped midrange, yielding a dynamic tonal character; combined with our tone-enhancing V-Class bracing, this model is ideal for working musicians in virtually any style. A striking sunburst top finish and new Finial fretboard inlays ensure the 414ce looks great wherever you take it, and with built-in ES2 electronics and the included hardshell case, you're ready for any musical scenario.
