The Taylor AD14ce 50th Anniversary Electro Acoustic is a fitting tribute to five decades of relentless innovation and guitar-making finesse. This limited-edition model showcases a Sitka spruce/walnut tonewood blend, reminiscent of Bob Taylor's earliest creations, delivering an impressive midrange response that is both warm and woody, enhanced by the V-Class bracing's crystal-clear projection and articulation.
