The Taylor 614ce Special-Edition Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar brings together the best of innovation and tradition for today's versatile player. This guitar pairs V-Class bracing and a torrefied Sitka spruce top with figured Big Leaf maple back and sides, offering vintage appeal with the clarity and complexity that maple is known for. The result is a dynamic acoustic-electric that projects with volume and resonance, perfect for both fingerpicking nuance and energetic strumming. With the ES2 pickup system, the 614ce Special-Edition accurately captures your playing style when plugging in to amplify your sound. The comfortable Grand Auditorium body provides excellent balance across the tonal spectrum.

V-Class Bracing Increases Volume, Sustain and Intonation

At the heart of the 614ce Special-Edition is Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing. This bracing boosts volume and sustain dramatically while improving intonation across the fingerboard. You'll hear purer, more consistent tone as you play, with notes that sound accurately in tune. Single notes ring out with more clarity and chords have a richer harmonic complexity. Whether you're performing live or recording in the studio, the 614ce Special-Edition projects with impressive acoustic power thanks to V-Class bracing.

The ES2 Pickup System Captures Your True Acoustic Tone

Plug in the 614ce Special-Edition to amplify your sound with complete accuracy thanks to Taylor's revolutionary ES2 pickup system. With three adjustable sensors positioned behind the saddle, the ES2 pickup captures the nuances of your playing style with stunning precision. The unique positioning allows the full resonance of the guitar's acoustic tone to come through naturally, giving you exceptional amplified tone. Easy-to-use bass, treble and volume controls on the discrete preamp allow you to shape your amplified sound.

Torrefied Spruce Top Offers Vintage Appeal

The solid torrefied Sitka spruce top of the 614ce Special-Edition has undergone a special roasting process that creates a beautiful vintage-like patina. Along with visual appeal, torrefaction yields impressive acoustic properties - the top is extremely responsive while retaining warmth and sweetness. Combined with maple's shimmering highs, the spruce top provides excellent resonance, projection and dynamic range.

Figured Maple Back and Sides Bring Complexity and Clarity

The stunning figured Big Leaf maple back and sides offer the shimmering treble that maple is prized for, along with the rich low end, sustain and complexity that Taylor's maple line has become known for. With both fingerstyle intricacy and flatpicking power, the 614ce Special-Edition projects with dimension at any dynamic level. The maple pairs perfectly with the spruce top, providing definition, focus and crisp note articulation.
