Crafted with all-solid tonewoods, striking appointments and an easy-playing Taylor neck, the new 414ce Studio offers pro-quality tone and feel at an appealing price for the budget-minded player. This model features back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, voiced with our V-Class bracing. It adds up to a high-fidelity sound with clear, bell-like trebles, a robust low-end response and rich harmonic texture, plus an added dash of warmth from our proprietary roasting process for the spruce top. With the Grand Auditorium body shape, players can expect a highly adaptable tone that performs well across virtually all genres and playing styles, while the slender Taylor neck ensures relaxed fretting across the frequency spectrum. It includes ES2 electronics for rich, clear plugged-in sound and ships with a resilient structured gig bag for storage and transportation.

• CASE/GIG BAG: Tan Structured Gig Bag Included.

Features

Grand Auditorium
Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.

Indian Rosewood
The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.

Torrefied Spruce
Treated with our special roasting process, torrefied spruce tops deliver all the clarity, balance and projection you’d expect from a traditional spruce top with an extra dash of warmth and played-in depth.

Expression System® 2
The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
