A resonant acoustic-electric with Taylor's signature playability.
The Taylor 314ce acoustic-electric guitar brings the acclaimed Taylor experience to players seeking amplified acoustic tone and performance. With the 314ce Grand Auditorium, you get Taylor's signature playability and intonation paired with an all-solid wood construction for organic resonance. The solid Sitka spruce top produces clear, balanced tone with bell-like highs, while solid sapele back and sides add warmth and richness. Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing boosts volume and sustain across the tonal spectrum. The comfortable mahogany neck and smooth ebony fingerboard make playing effortless. The sleek Grand Auditorium body yields versatile response, from delicate fingerpicking to energetic strumming. Plug in the onboard ES2 pickup and preamp and the 314ce projects your acoustic tone with clarity and balance. For amplified gigs or recording, the 314ce acoustic-electric guitar delivers Taylor's renowned sound and playability.
Project Your Acoustic Tone Clearly With the ES2 Pickup and Preamp
The 314ce comes equipped with Taylor's ES2 pickup and preamp system, giving you amplified acoustic tone with the nuance and warmth of your unplugged sound. The undersaddle ES2 pickup accurately conveys the guitar's organic resonance, while the preamp's simple controls make it easy to shape your amplified tone. Just plug into an amp or PA system and the 314ce projects your playing with clarity and balance. The onboard tuner keeps you sounding your best on stage. Whether you're gigging with a band or tracking in the studio, the 314ce acoustic-electric guitar captures Taylor's signature acoustic sound.
Comfortable Feel With Mahogany Neck and Ebony Fingerboard
The 314ce sports Taylor's signature neck profile that makes playing feel natural and effortless. Its mahogany neck provides a comfortable contour, while the ebony fingerboard adds a silky feel. The slim 1 11/16" nut width and 15" fingerboard radius feel familiar to electric players and allow easy fretting and chord changes. Whether you're a fingerstylist or a strummer, the 314ce neck invites inspired performances and fluid playing. The thin matte finish allows your hand to glide up and down the neck smoothly.
All-Solid Wood Construction For Organic Acoustic Tone
Taylor crafted the 314ce with an all-solid wood body, giving it a rich, resonant acoustic voice. The solid Sitka spruce top provides crisp articulation with complex overtones in the highs and balanced midrange punch. The sapele back and sides have a focused low end as well as warm, musical overtones. Together, these tone woods yield a clear, balanced acoustic tone. The V-Class bracing optimizes the top's vibration for more volume, longer sustain and rich harmonic content. Whether you're fingerpicking or strumming, the 314ce's organic solid-wood construction rewards you with exceptional acoustic tone.
Sleek Grand Auditorium Body For Versatile Response
The 314ce's Grand Auditorium shape provides a versatile tonal response perfect for all styles of playing. Its slim waist lets the guitar resonate freely, resulting in a robust voice. The rounded lower bout adds tonal bloom to your bass notes, while the tapered shoulders enable clear, balanced treble notes. The compact body style also makes the 314ce comfortable to hold and play whether seated or standing. You get dynamic range in response to both aggressive strumming and delicate fingerpicking. For an all-purpose acoustic with Taylor's famous playability, the 314ce Grand Auditorium delivers.
