Taylor Next Generation Builder's Edition 314ce LTD | New
This beautifully contoured Grand Auditorium reintroduces solid walnut to the Taylor line in style, offering an exceptionally comfortable experience paired with a distinctively warm, woody midrange voice. The Next Generation Builder's Edition 314ce LTD combines walnut back and sides with a Sitka spruce top to deliver a bold, dry response with strong fundamental focus and clarity, all enhanced with more volume, sustain and open-string richness thanks to the scalloped V-Class bracing inside. In Builder's Edition style, this model sports chamfered body edges, a beveled armrest and a matching cutaway for a supremely comfortable, accommodating feel, while the Action Control Neck makes it easy to set the perfect string height for any playing style. It's finished with a beautiful Kona Burst for the back, sides and neck, and accented with Sentinel fretboard inlays.

FEATURES:
Next-Gen Performance Meets a Woody Walnut Voice
This versatile limited-edition Grand Auditorium combines a refined feel with a warm midrange character.
﹒Grand Auditorium
Our flagship shape offers comfort and cross-genre utility, with a clear, balanced tone suited for both fingerstyle and strumming.
﹒Walnut
Walnut's crisp highs are balanced by a deep, woody low end that emerges as the guitar is played in.
﹒Action Control Neck
Building on Taylor's legacy of easy-playing necks, the new Action Control Neck pairs a long-tenon joint for added warmth and depth with a patented system for effortless string height adjustment.
﹒Spruce
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
﹒The Claria Acoustic Pickup System
Designed for reliability and ease of use, the Claria System features a reimagined piezo pickup that delivers clear, versatile acoustic tone for any application.
﹒Beveled Cutaway
Our beveled cutaway design provides a more player-friendly feel for guitarists who utilize every inch of the fretboard. It features a compound design with a smoothened edge along the corner of the body between the end of the cutaway and the neck heel, providing a more comfortable feel for the fretting hand.
