Taylor 614ce Special Edition Grand Auditorium Acoustic Electric Guitar Trans Red

Featuring Taylor's Grand Auditorium Body, This Special Edition 600 series has a Transparent Red finish over a Spruce Top, Maple Back and Sides providing a classy take on their most popular Body Style. Taylor Guitars own ES2 electronics, a hard rock maple neck, no pickguard and a hard case finish off this beauty.

Crafted with solid Big Leaf maple back and sides and a torrefied Sitka spruce top, the Taylor 614ce offers an updated take on what players may know as the maple sound. Revoiced by Andy Powers to generate more warmth and openness, this Grand Auditorium takes a boost from the V-Class bracing inside, which adds volume and sustain that complement the torrefied top's extra sweetness and depth. The result is a guitar with a highly player-reflective sound, one that showcases the unique stylistic and technical quirks of each individual player. A Transparent Red Finish highlights maple's natural figuring; other appointments include a paua/abalone rosett. It ships with ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.

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

Maple
Revoiced to produce greater warmth, complexity, volume, sustain and responsiveness

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.
