Taylor 914ce-SB Grand Auditorium Sitka Spruce Top Acoustic-Electric Tobacco Sunburst

Taylor 914ce-SB Grand Auditorium Sitka Spruce Top Acoustic-Electric Tobacco Sunburst

The pinnacle of Taylor’s rosewood/spruce offerings is the 914ce, a Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric whose sonic complexity and richness are matched by its beautiful presentation and detailing. All-solid rosewood back and sides with a Sitka spruce top serve up a stunning balance of warmth and clarity, featuring low-end presence, chime-like trebles and a slightly scooped midrange that opens up space for vocals and other instruments.

V-Class bracing helps push out more volume and sustain, and the built-in ebony armrest offers a more comfortable feel for your strumming/picking arm. Refined appointments include ebony binding, an Ascension inlay scheme in paua and pearl, and a paua rosette. It ships with ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.

This model run goes one step further, showcasing a gorgeous tobacco sunburst top treatment that amplifies the visual appeal of the sparkling paua abalone top trim. A lush redesign of the series has brought a sleek and comfortable hand-carved beveled ebony armrest to the series, along with the same sweeping array of tonal-enhancing refinements first applied to the 800 Series.

On the 914ce, the Grand Auditorium’s all-around versatility has been punched up to produce a more powerful bass response and a warmer, sweeter midrange. The refreshed appointment scheme boasts a beautifully calibrated balance of ebony binding and koa purfling, together with colorful abalone shell inlays and trim.

Additional features include a Venetian cutaway and Taylor’s Expression System® 2 pickup. The guitar ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
