An exquisite instrument with a Sitka spruce top, Indian rosewood back and sides, beautiful inlays, and Taylor Expression System electronics.
Taylor's ultra-premium class of rosewood/spruce guitars showcases a beautiful appointment package, featuring the classic “Cindy” inlay scheme, rosewood binding with red purfling, shimmering abalone trim around the top and fretboard extension, and Gotoh tuners. From wood selection to design elegance, the 900 Series embodies masterful Taylor craftsmanship. The sleek lines of the 2012 914ce-L Rosewood/Spruce Grand Auditorium Left-Handed Acoustic-Electric Guitar are accentuated by a softly-rounded Venetian cutaway, complementing its shimmering appointments. Taylor's finest Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce deliver a tone that can only be described as "an experience."
Indian Rosewood/Sitka
Indian rosewood seems as if it was created to be on a guitar. The clarity, balance, sustain, excellent bass response, and wonderful coloration and figure are without equal. Paired with Sitka spruce, it is an unstoppable combination.
Grand Auditorium (GA)
The GA is Taylor’s most versatile and popular shape, excelling at light-touch fingerstyle to full-blown strumming. Great for mic’ing and recording, the GA’s balanced mid-range and bright tone exemplify the Taylor voice.
Expression System®
Using proprietary pickup technology developed at Taylor, the Expression System® amplifies your guitar with an unrivaled, natural live sound. Onboard tone controls provide added flavor, or set flat for an uncolored, exceptionally-clean amplified sound. It’s your tone. Amplified.
Gloss
The finish used to create this guitar's lustrous gloss top, back, and sides was developed at Taylor for maximum durability and resistance to cold-checking. This ultra violet-cured finish is also more environmentally friendly than traditional lacquer finishes. Available in natural finish.
