Taylor GA NOS 414ce Special Edition Studio Acoustic Electric Sitka Rosewood in Honey Burst w/Hard Bag - NOS414CESTHB

Taylor NOS 414ce Studio Special Edition
Acoustic Electric in Honeyburst w/Gig Bag

A versatile Grand Auditorium with torrefied spruce, solid Indian rosewood, V-Class bracing and expressive ES2 electronics.

This Taylor 414ce Studio Special Edition combines premium all-solid tonewoods with an exceptionally comfortable Grand Auditorium design. Our NOS (New Old Stock) guitars are bought directly from Taylor and receive a Full Taylor Warranty. A torrefied Sitka spruce top delivers strong projection, warmth and a more mature, played-in response, while solid Indian rosewood back and sides add depth, clarity and rich harmonic overtones. Taylor's V-Class bracing enhances volume, sustain and pitch accuracy, while chamfered body edges and the slim Standard Carve neck provide an easy, inviting playing feel. Expression System 2 electronics faithfully translate the guitar's natural acoustic character for amplified performance.

Features

The 414ce Studio Special Edition pairs Taylor's Grand Auditorium body shape with a Venetian cutaway for comfortable access to the upper register. Its torrefied spruce soundboard and solid Indian rosewood body produce a balanced voice with articulate highs, a strong low end and lush overtones suited to strumming, flatpicking and fingerstyle playing. V-Class bracing contributes additional sustain and responsiveness, while the neo-tropical mahogany neck and West African Crelicam ebony playing surface provide Taylor's familiar smooth, comfortable feel. Taylor ES2 electronics offer a natural amplified sound for stage and recording use.

As with all solid-wood acoustic guitars, proper humidity is essential to maintaining the instrument's condition and performance. Damage caused by excessive humidity or lack of humidity is not covered under Taylor's warranty. We strongly recommend maintaining proper humidity levels and using an appropriate guitar humidifier when necessary.
