Torrefied Sitka Spruce top, Sapele back & sides - gloss finish

Torrefied Sitka Spruce top, Sapele back & sides - gloss finish

The 50th Anniversary 314ce LTD elevates one of the world's best-selling U.S.-made acoustic guitars to new heights. Featuring a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, this versatile Grand Auditorium produces a punchy midrange with a warm, woody low end to balance its sparkling trebles. Our V-Class bracing generates greater volume, sustain and harmony down the neck, while our special roasting process for the top adds a touch of aged-in depth and sweetness. We’ve enhanced the vintage character of the slightly darkened top with a subtle shaded edgeburst around the body and neck, while a firestripe faux-tortoiseshell pickguard adds a bold visual touch. Other aesthetic details include gold tuners and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots. All 50th Anniversary Collection models feature a celebratory limited-edition label. This model also includes ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.

Grand Auditorium

Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.

Sapele

One of the best all-around tonewoods there is, sapele will deliver for any playing style.

Sitka Spruce

The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.

Expression System® 2

The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Venetian Cutaway

The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.

V-Class Bracing

Our patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
