Taylor 314CE, Next Generation Electro Acoustic Guitar, Grand Auditorium
The Taylor 314ce Next Generation Electro Acoustic Guitar Grand Auditorium is a versatile acoustic powerhouse built for players who value clarity, balance, and effortless playability. Featuring solid sapele back and sides paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, this next-generation Grand Auditorium delivers a warm, focused tone with crisp articulation, punchy mids, and a beautifully responsive dynamic range.
At the core of the 314ce is Taylor’s innovative V-Class bracing system, designed to enhance sustain, improve intonation, and create greater harmonic consistency across the fretboard. The result is a guitar that feels alive in your hands, offering exceptional definition whether you’re fingerpicking intricate melodies or strumming full, resonant chords.
Its sleek Grand Auditorium body shape provides outstanding versatility, making it equally suited for songwriting, recording, and live performance. Finished in a clean natural aesthetic, the 314ce blends understated elegance with Taylor’s renowned modern craftsmanship and ultra-comfortable neck profile for a smooth playing experience at every level.
- Long-Tenon Action Control Neck -The long-tenon neck joint improves the neck-to-body connection, adding warmth and depth to the guitar’s voice. At the same time, the Action Control feature makes adjusting string height quicker and more precise than ever — no need to remove strings or the neck. Players can dial in their preferred setup in seconds and adapt on the fly to changing styles or shifting climate conditions. It’s the ultimate fusion of tone, stability and setup convenience.
- Scalloped V-Class Bracing - The latest evolution of Taylor’s V-Class bracing introduces a scalloped profile that unlocks a warmer low end and richer open-string resonance, while preserving the balance, pitch accuracy and projection that define V-Class. The guitars are now seasoned with a touch of low-end depth that adds more fullness to the voice.
- Claria System Acoustic Electronics - Developed with extensive input from touring artists and live sound engineers, Taylor’s new Claria System reimagines the under-saddle piezo pickup to deliver consistent plug-and-play acoustic tone in any setting. A proprietary preamp tames the harshness of traditional piezos and incorporates soundhole-mounted controls: Volume, Tone and a versatile Mid-Contour knob. The result is a consistent, stage-ready tone that’s easy to shape for any setting — from solo café gigs to large-venue performances.
