Taylor 514ce V-Class Grand Auditorium Semi Acoustic Guitar

Introducing Taylor's inaugural Grand Auditorium guitar featuring Urban Ironbark back and sides, the 514ce produces a rich, robust sound merging the high-fidelity resonance of rosewood with the warm, punchy midrange of mahogany, ensuring a well-balanced sonic profile across the spectrum. Enhanced with a torrefied Sitka spruce top for mature, played-in tones and V-Class bracing for heightened volume and sustain, the 514ce delivers ample power for robust strumming while maintaining touch sensitivity for nuanced fingerstyle playing. Adorned with new Aerial inlays crafted from Italian acrylic, a single-ring abalone rosette, and a subtle stain accentuating Urban Ironbark's vibrant red tones, along with a delicately shaded edgeburst and a glossy body finish, this model seamlessly blends classic and modern visual aesthetics. Complete with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case, the 514ce is ready to inspire players of all styles.
