This body style is ideal for a wide range of playing styles and musical genres, from delicate fingerpicking to powerful strumming. The Grand Auditorium shape is known for its responsiveness and clarity, making it a popular choice for both solo performers and ensemble players. 

Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top and Indian Rosewood Back and Sides for a Rich and Dynamic Sound

This acoustic-electric guitar is crafted with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, a process that enhances the wood's resonance and produces a warm, aged tone with exceptional clarity. The Indian rosewood back and sides add a touch of visual flair and contribute to the guitar's overall tonal complexity, providing a balanced sound with exceptional depth and sustain. This combination of tonewoods creates a versatile instrument that's capable of handling a wide range of musical styles and techniques.

V-Class Bracing for Enhanced Volume, Sustain and Projection

The 414ce Studio features Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing, a revolutionary design that enhances the guitar's volume, sustain and projection while preserving its clarity and articulation. This bracing pattern allows the top to vibrate more freely and efficiently, resulting in a richer and more resonant tone that's perfect for both fingerstyle playing and strumming. 

Taylor Expression System 2 Electronics for a Natural Amplified Sound

This grand auditorium acoustic-electric guitar is equipped with Taylor's Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics, a revolutionary pickup design that delivers exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness.

Premium Appointments and a Stunning Finish

The 414ce Studio is adorned with premium appointments that enhance its aesthetic appeal and contribute to its exceptional tone. The genuine West African ebony fingerboard and bridge provide a smooth and responsive playing surface, while the black TUSQ nut and Micarta saddle ensure optimal intonation and sustain. The guitar's natural finish highlights the beauty of the Indian rosewood back and sides, while the nickel Taylor tuning machines add a touch of elegance.
