Taylor 114ce Sapele / Spruce - Natural

The Taylor 114ce Sapele / Torrefied Spruce – Natural brings a subtle but meaningful upgrade to an already brilliant all-rounder. It keeps everything players love about the 114ce — comfort, balance, and reliability — but adds a touch more warmth, depth, and maturity straight out of the case.

The standout here is the solid torrefied spruce top. Through a specialised roasting process, the wood is aged to behave more like a well-played-in guitar, giving you that sweet, broken-in tone from day one. You still get the clarity and projection of spruce, but with a softer edge and a more rounded, seasoned character.

Paired with layered sapele back and sides, the overall voice stays nicely controlled and balanced. There’s a focused midrange and warm response that keeps everything sitting neatly together — ideal for both chord work and more detailed playing.

The Grand Auditorium body shape continues to be one of Taylor’s strongest assets. It delivers a balanced, versatile tone that works equally well for strumming and fingerstyle, all while remaining comfortable to hold for long sessions.

Playability is exactly what you’d expect — the slim Taylor neck makes everything feel smooth and effortless, whether you’re just getting started or playing regularly.

With the Venetian cutaway, you’ve got easy access to the upper frets, and the Expression System® 2 electronics ensure that when you plug in, you get a natural, dynamic amplified sound that reflects the guitar’s acoustic voice.

It also comes with a lightweight gig bag, making it ready to travel wherever your playing takes you.
