Acoustic-Electric Guitar · United States · Introduced 1999
The Taylor 314ce is an all-solid-wood acoustic-electric guitar that serves as the entry gateway into Taylor's legendary American-made lineup, offering professional-grade tone, stellar craftsmanship, and exquisite playability. Crafted with a solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid sapele back and sides, the 314ce produces a punchy, balanced midrange, sparkling trebles, and a warm fundamental low end that responds wonderfully to both delicate fingerstyle picking and vigorous flatpicking. Enhanced by Taylor's V-Class bracing architecture, the guitar boasts increased volume, longer sustain, and pitch accuracy across the entire fretboard. Equipped with Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics, it translates its natural acoustic voice into a pristine amplified signal for stages and studios. The smooth mahogany neck and West African ebony fingerboard provide exceptional playing comfort. It is a premier instrument for dedicated musicians.
