Just released at Haggerty’s Music is the Taylor 314ce Studio. This new guitar offers a refined take on the beloved 314ce Grand Auditorium, combining exceptional tone, playability, and affordability with a fresh aesthetic twist. Built with an all-solid-wood body featuring a torrefied spruce top and sapele back and sides, this guitar delivers the rich, balanced sound players have cherished for decades. The all-gloss body and rounded edges with black-and-white top trim enhance its sleek, modern look, while a choice of natural or light shaded edgeburst top options adds a touch of elegance.
Upgraded features include a narrower 1-11/16" nut width for added comfort, 4mm Italian acrylic dot fretboard inlays, a faux tortoiseshell pickguard, and a structured gig bag for easy transport. The 314ce Studio is powered by Taylor’s innovative V-Class bracing for enhanced sustain and volume, and ES2 electronics for natural amplified tone. It retains the classic 3-ring black rosette and Taylor nickel tuners, making it a perfect choice for players seeking versatility and style at an attractive price point.
