Perfectly Crafted Golden-anniversary 314ce
Celebrate Taylor’s 50th anniversary with this stunning 314ce Builder’s Edition acoustic-electric guitar! Refined with the company’s proprietary V-Class bracing and topped in a gorgeous cut of solid Sitka spruce, the 314ce Builder’s Edition 50th anniversary projects with a woody evenness that showcases as much top-end shimmer as it does low-end richness, with all the defined midrange presence to match. Beveled at the lower bout and cutaway, this Grand Auditorium body style remains amazingly comfortable while sitting, standing, strumming, and soloing. With a neck and fingerboard of mahogany and ebony, respectively, this 6-string achieves astonishing sustain for showcasing the musical complexity of every note with graceful transparency. Antique gold-finished tuning machines maintain impeccable intonation, while Taylor’s distinguished ES2 onboard electronics promise perfectly sculpted tone for plugged-in performances. Primed for perfection around every curve, the 314ce Builder’s Edition 50th-anniversary guitar delivers a golden example of Taylor’s fine craftsmanship to commemorate a half-century of musical masterpieces.

Stellar sonics from V-Class-braced Sitka spruce
Sitka spruce exhibits the perfect natural blend of detail and frequency balance, making it an absolutely no-doubt appointment as the top wood for the 314ce Builder’s Edition 50th anniversary. This wonderful evenness is further enhanced by Taylor’s exclusive V-Class bracing engineering underneath the spruce top, designed for a unique vibration that pushes greater volume, sustain, and tonal purity into the light. With beveling at the lower bout and cutaway, this acoustic is tailor-made for comfortable play.
A tonally responsive foundation so special deserves a well-playing neck to back it up, and that’s just what Taylor gave the 314ce Builder’s Edition 50th anniversary. Its mahogany neck receives an equally comfy standard carve neck profile. This instills a richness in resonance that’s complemented perfectly by a 15-inch radius Crelicam ebony fingerboard, boasting 20 frets marked by Taylor’s gorgeous compass inlays. Talk about an occasion for celebration!
