Description

The Taylor 414ce Left-Handed Natural from the Next Generation 400 Series is a versatile Grand Auditorium acoustic that blends classic rosewood and Sitka spruce tone with Taylor’s latest playability and electronics innovations. With the new Action Control Neck, scalloped V-Class bracing and Claria System electronics, this lefty workhorse is built to deliver a rich, balanced voice and a consistently comfortable feel on stage, in the studio or at home. Solid rosewood back and sides paired with a solid Sitka spruce top produce the timeless acoustic sound that has made the 400 Series a favourite for songwriters and performers alike. Deep, piano-like lows, clear, sparkling highs and a focused midrange give you a wide tonal palette that responds beautifully to both fingerstyle and strumming. The updated internal bracing and long-tenon neck joint add extra warmth and presence in the mids, helping your playing sit confidently in a mix without losing clarity. Left-handed players benefit directly from Taylor’s new Action Control Neck, which is designed to keep the feel of the guitar consistent and comfortable across the entire fretboard. Whether you prefer a light touch or a more aggressive attack, the neck geometry and construction work together to provide a smooth, predictable response that makes long sessions less tiring and intricate parts easier to execute. When it is time to plug in, the Taylor Claria System electronics give you a clear, natural amplified sound that reflects the guitar’s acoustic character. Simple, intuitive controls make it straightforward to dial in your tone for different rooms and ensembles, so you can move from intimate solo sets to full-band performances with confidence that your sound will translate.
