Taylor 314CE Acoustic Guitar - Natural Finish
The Taylor 300 Series
The all-solid Taylor experience begins with the updated 300 Series®. Crisp, black binding flanks the satin-finish sapele back and sides and glossy Sitka spruce top, and then continues up the fretboard. The 300 Series is truly the performer’s workhorse, combining technology and craftsmanship with understated style.
Taylor 314CE
The Taylor 314ce is a Grand Auditorium body, Venetian cutaway, and the Taylor Expression System™ add up to a versatile guitar that's perfect for stage and home. With exceptional value and performance, the Taylor 314ce is widely regarded as being the ideal entry point into the world of Taylor Electro Acoustic Guitars. Made in the USA, the Tayor 314ce is the ideal guitar for performing musicians and home enthusiast alike.
Sapele Back and Sides
This exceptional, mahogany-like wood grows throughout the tropical rain forests of Nigeria and the Ivory Coast of Africa. Ever since we introduced it in 1998, its legion of fans has grown exponentially. As a tonewood, it's denser and harder than mahogany, so it has a crisper, clearer, brighter, "pop"-ier sound than its more familiar counterpart. Loud and robust, with a lovely ribboned grain, sapele has been used by Spanish guitar makers for many years.
Taylor Expression System
The Expression System incorporates three different magnetic sensors. Two strategically placed Dynamic Body Sensors™ affixed to the underside of the soundboard capture the complex nuances of the top's vibration, while a Dynamic String Sensor™ mounted beneath the fretboard extension registers string and neck vibration.
The preamp, developed with collaborative input from pro audio pioneer Mr. Rupert Neve, boosts the pickup signal cleanly, without the need for artificial EQ "coloration". The balanced, low-impedance signal the Expression System produces can run direct into a mixer or PA in most situations, and is free of distortion at almost any volume.
Three simple, unintrusive onboard control knobs preserve the aesthetic beauty of your Taylor, yet allow you to easily adjust the volume, bass, and treble to suit your personal preferences and performance environment. When set flat, the tone controls add no color and produce the most natural sound. Or, add bass or treble (or subtract) to adjust for the room or personal tastes.
The payoff is in the purity of high-fidelity amplified tone, unprecedented dynamic range, and extraordinary resistance to feedback and distortion. It enables all of the expressive subtleties of your playing to come through, just the way you intended.
The Expression System is available exclusively on Taylor guitars in 300 Series and above.
