The 314ce has long been a popular model from Taylor's 300 Series due to it's modern sound, solid build and reliability. Taylor's Grand Auditorium body shape provides a smaller, more ergonomic alternative to players who struggle with larger dreadnought style guitars. The 314ce LTD has been upgraded with a number of premium features, showcasing stunning visuals and enhanced playability, elevating the versatile workhorse to sublime heights.
Construction
The 314ce LTD features an upgraded torrefied Sitka Spruce top which takes advantage of Taylor's roasting recipe. The result is a more aged, "played-in" tone, adding a sweetness and depth that normally only come with time. A beautiful quilted Sapele back and sides provide a focussed tone that complements the Spruce top perfectly and is enhanced with a blackwood stain to bring out the grain. Underneath the hood is Taylor's ground-breaking V-Class bracing which produces notes that are louder and with more sustain and better intonation.
ES2 Expression System
The 314ce comes with Taylor's revolutionary ES2 Expression system which features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than traditional under-saddle pickups. Delivering a transparent sound that doesn't colour the guitar's natural characteristics, the ES2 is simple to use and takes the 314ce LTD to new levels of sonic beauty. The ES2 is the perfect plug-and-play style pickup and works as well on stage as it does in a studio environment.
