Description

Taylor is excited to offer fans of Indian rosewood a more budget-friendly alternative to our standard Grand Auditorium 414ce model. The 414ce Studio pairs solid Indian rosewood back and sides with a torrefied Sitka spruce top and incorporates other thoughtful design refinements that deliver premium Taylor playability and tone combined with an artfully distilled aesthetic. Notable updates include a torrefied spruce top, which serves up a more played-in sound, rounded body edges with black and white top purfling, a nut width of 1-11/16 inches, 4mm Italian acrylic dot fretboard inlays, a 3-ring black rosette, a faux tortoiseshell pickguard, and the inclusion of a structured gig bag for easy portability.

Key Features

  • Taylor V-Bracing – The bracing system on this guitar increases volume, sustain and responsiveness.
  • Torrefied Body Top – The spruce top has been “Torrefied”, adding an extra layer of richness to your tone.
  • Taylor ES-2 System – The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Taylor V Bracing

The “V” pattern provides a continuous flow of strength from the upper bout to the lower bout, which provides rigidity despite the soundhole’s location in the middle of the soundboard. Taylor’s refined interpretations of this traditional bracing style have been adapted to produce pleasing volume, sustain and responsiveness, with signature clarity and balance across the tonal spectrum that has long been associated with Taylor’s guitars.

Torrefied Spruce Top

In typical Taylor style, they are yet again pushing boundaries of acoustic guitar design and have developed a signature recipe for a process called “torrefaction” to make spruce sound even richer and more sophisticated, adding a new dimension to this much-loved wood.

Taylor Expression System 2 

The Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) is a revolutionary pickup design that delivers the latest in Taylor’s ongoing innovation in acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the Expression System 2 is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, 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 ever before.

Together with Taylor’s custom-designed “professional audio”-grade preamp, this system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. On stage through a PA, plugged into your favorite acoustic amplifier, or direct into recording software, the Expression System 2 faithfully conveys the voice of your Taylor guitar.

They come in a wide range of styles, including steel string and classical designs, each with its own feel and tonal character. Body shape, wood choice, and construction all influence warmth, projection, and balance, making acoustics suitable for everything from gentle fingerstyle to confident strumming. Whether used for songwriting, practice, or performance, acoustic guitars provide a simple, honest connection between the player and the music.
