The Taylor 414ce-R Acoustic-Electric is the perfect guitar for the player looking for ideal functionality with a charming tone to match. Upgraded with Rosewood back and sides, the 414CE-R has all the rich, full-bodied depth players have come to expect.
The popular cutaway Grand Auditorium body entices players of all styles with an array of sonic delights, starting with the classic wood pairing of solid rosewood and Sitka spruce. The guitar is now powered by the award-winning V-Class internal bracing, which not only enhances the voicing with more volume, sustain and projection, but also improves the intonation along the entire fretboard, yielding greater clarity, consistency and harmonic agreement between notes. As a result, rosewood’s full-spectrum voice, featuring rich overtones, takes on an even more pleasing high-fidelity sound that translates into a more expressive response. It makes a fantastic guitar for virtually any application.
The appointments strike a tasteful balance between style and restraint, featuring white binding, Renaissance fretboard/peghead inlays in Italian acrylic, and a full-gloss finish on the body. The guitar ships with the Taylor ES2 electronic pickup system. The ES2 can transparently translate the acoustic beauty of this instrument to supply a signal for amplification or recording for any event you may encounter. This guitar also includes a deluxe hardshell case.
