From Our Research Team:

A Very Affordable Taylor Acoustic-electric

With Taylor's new Under-Saddle Transducer pickup, the 114ce is a complete package that's ready to perform. Sporting a solid spruce top, it's big on quality and tone. The 114ce defies the logic of most starter guitars by providing a really great-sounding instrument that extremely well-built. Laminated sapele back and sides and a solid spruce top make for crisp and well-defined sound in this versatile mid-priced guitar. If you're in need of stellar Taylor tone, but can't swing the price on the higher-end models, the 114ce is certainly well worth a look!





Taylor 114ce at a Glance:
  • Grand Auditorium Body Style
  • Taylor ES-T Electronics
  • Durable Varnish Finish


Grand Auditorium Cutaway Body Style
Taylor's Grand Auditorium combines the width and depth of a Dreadnought with a narrower waist. Its sleek design yields a strong treble zing across the tonal spectrum and sharpens the definition of individual notes. The Grand Auditorium is a strong fingerpicking guitar that also adapts well to medium strumming.

Taylor ES-T Electronics
Developed by the same Taylor team that invented the Expression System pickup, the Taylor ES-T Under-Saddle Transducer takes piezo technology to another level. Optimized for the 100 and 200 Series, the system features onboard Bass, Treble, and Volume controls plus custom-voiced EQ and dynamic response.

Varnish
A durable varnish finish offers protection, good looks, and a smooth feel to the touch. Available in natural finish.

Fantastic Guitar for the Price

by from
September 27, 2011
Music Background:
This is one of the best guitars I've played at this price point. The action and intonation are more than acceptable straight from the factory. I'm gigging with mine and didn't even bother with a set... read more [+]up. The instrument holds its tuning very well whether you strum, flatpick or play fingerstyle.

One of my favorite things about this guitar is the low action higher up the fretboard. If you spend a lot of time on the higher registers, you'll appreciate this attribute.

The guitar has a very bright, clean sound, which makes sense as it's a very light instrument. It projects well when it's not plugged in, and the difference in tone between plugged and unplugged is almost nil. My Martin is deeper and more "wooden" sounding; the Taylor really expands my acoustic tone options. close [-]

A Great Taylor Guitar

by Matt B. from NC, USA
August 20, 2011
Music Background: Guitar strummer, worship leader, singer of songs
I needed to purchase a new acoustic/electric guitar because my Takamine of 10 years decided to stop working (electronics went kaputski). I read a few reviews of the guitar online and listened to some ... read more [+]clips, but knew if it's got Taylor on the headstock it would be a good guitar. I was not disappointed!

It's got a great sound, between my Takamine's more boxy sounds and a jumbo acoustic, and it sits well in a full band setting. No matter how hard I banged on the strings I was a very controlled sounding guitar, almost as though it was it's own compressor. Even without some of the fancier bells and whistles (it has a natural finish on the body and neck, not all glossy and shiny), it is a very easy guitar to play.

I would definitely recommend this guitar to anyone looking for a great Taylor. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
