When it comes to tonewoods, the Taylor 314ce Grand Auditorium Electro Acoustic does not disappoint. It features a solid Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides that offer a rich, balanced sound with exceptional projection. The Sitka spruce top is known for its clarity and responsiveness, making it perfect for fingerstyle players or anyone who wants a guitar that can handle a wide range of playing styles. Meanwhile, the sapele back and sides provide warm, full-bodied tones with plenty of sustain, making this guitar suitable for genres like blues, country, and folk.
And because these are all-solid tonewoods, you can expect a complex sonic character that develops with age and play. The materials have been carefully selected and matched for their sonic profiles and grain patterns, resulting in a superior sound that will stand the test of time!
The Taylor 314ce features a versatile Grand Auditorium body shape that allows for both delicate fingerpicking and powerful strumming. With a narrow waist and a slightly wider lower bout, the Grand Auditorium shape delivers a balanced, clear tone that is perfect for a wide range of playing styles and genres. The sleek Venetian cutaway design provides easy access to the upper frets, making it easy to play those high notes with ease.
The Taylor 314ce Grand Auditorium is equipped with Taylor's revolutionary V-Class bracing, which enhances the guitar's sustain, volume, and intonation. This innovative bracing design reduces certain sonic issues commonly found in traditional X-braced guitars, such as uneven tonal response and poor intonation.
By introducing a new bracing pattern that aligns the strings and the top of the guitar differently, the V-Class bracing creates a more powerful and even sound with enhanced sustain. The result is a guitar that is not only louder and more dynamic but also more in tune across the entire fretboard.
The Taylor 314ce Electro Acoustic is equipped with the Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics, which provide a natural and accurate amplified sound that faithfully reproduces the guitar's tonal nuances. The system features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors that capture the guitar's entire sound spectrum, resulting in an incredibly dynamic and responsive amplified tone.
The ES2 system also features Taylor's patented behind-the-saddle pickup placement, which helps to produce a more balanced and even sound across the strings. This ensures that every note you play is clear and articulate, without any unwanted harshness or boominess.
