Taylor Guitars is thrilled to offer left-handed players the 414ce V-Class Special Edition Grand Auditorium. Now available at Guitar Center, this innovative acoustic-electric guitar provides an unparalleled playing experience. At the heart of the 414ce's design is Taylor's groundbreaking V-Class bracing, which boosts volume, sustain and intonation. The guitar's solid Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides produce a balanced, articulate tone that rings out with bell-like clarity.

V-Class Bracing Unlocks the Guitar's Potential

Taylor's V-Class bracing is a breakthrough in acoustic guitar design that optimizes the instrument's tonal response. It creates notes that sound purer, fuller and more consistent across the fretboard. V-Class bracing also provides easier tuning, greater projection and longer sustain. The 414ce's notes bloom, ripen and decay in a harmonious fashion, resulting in fewer dissonant overtones.

Premium Tonewoods Yield a Nuanced Acoustic Voice

The 414ce's solid Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides are prized for their musical properties. The spruce top provides a crisp, balanced tone with chime-like highs. The rosewood back and sides produce a throaty low end with sparkling treble notes. Together, these tonewoods give the 414ce a lush, detailed voice that shines when fingerpicked or strummed.

Onboard Electronics Capture the Guitar's Essence

Taylor's Expression System 2 reproduces the 414ce's acoustic properties with stunning fidelity. Its three behind-the-saddle pickups sense the guitar's nuanced tone, which the ES2 then transmits through its preamp. On stage or in the studio, the ES2 conveys the 414ce's voice with exceptional clarity and responsiveness through PA systems, acoustic amps or recording interfaces.

A Lifetime of Support from an Industry Leader

Taylor Guitars is committed to building premium, eco-friendly instruments and providing world-class customer service. Each 414ce undergoes Taylor's rigorous quality testing. For left-handed musicians seeking an acoustic-electric guitar with bold, balanced tone, innovative design and premium craftsmanship, the 414ce is an unmatched choice.
