Taylor Acoustic Electric 414ce Grand Auditorium
The acoustic/electric Grand Auditorium 414ce responds well to an array of playing styles thanks to Taylor’s proprietary body shape and the expansive tonal palette of ovangkol and spruce. Expect a blend of power and tonal definition, especially in the midrange, so whether you like to strum, flatpick or play fingerstyle, the 414ce makes a great playing partner. Appointments include white binding, progressive dot fretboard inlays, and a three-ring rosette, and the guitar features Taylor’s Expression System acoustic electronics along with a Venetian cutaway. Ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
