Taylor 724ce Koa - Gloss Natural
Some guitars whisper, others roar — and then there are those that simply sing. The Taylor 724ce is one of those rare instruments that manages to look like a piece of art while sounding like a dream. With its stunning Hawaiian koa body and Taylor's signature playability, this is an acoustic-electric built for players who demand tone, touch, and timeless beauty.
Crafted entirely from solid, select-grade Hawaiian koa, the 724ce delivers a tone that’s as complex as its appearance — rich mids, sweet top-end sparkle, and a woody warmth that only deepens with time. Whether you’re fingerpicking a delicate intro or strumming full-force, the 724ce responds with balance, clarity, and character.
The Grand Auditorium shape offers that ‘just right’ feel — versatile enough for any genre, yet supremely comfortable whether you're onstage or on the sofa. The Venetian cutaway isn’t just elegant — it gives you seamless access to the upper frets when the music takes you higher.
Taylor’s V-Class bracing elevates the tone further, enhancing sustain and bringing out every note with perfect intonation. Plug in, and the Expression System 2 electronics will carry that beautiful acoustic character straight to the front of house, studio monitors, or wherever the music leads you.
And the finish? A glorious gloss natural that lets the wild grain of the koa shine through — no two 724ce models look exactly alike, and that’s part of the magic.
At Musicmaker, we know a lifer of a guitar when we see one — and the 724ce is exactly that. Soulful, stunning, and supremely playable.
