What's special about this item?

The 324ce is an all-solid-wood, U.S. built model that is part of the entry way into the higher end models Taylor offers. Refinements for 2026 make this amazing-value instrument more compelling than ever. The guitar starts with all-solid woods consisting of sapele for the back and sides, and mahogany for the top. The mahogany top gives the guitar an aged, warm sound. The Grand Auditorium body shape is the most versatile body shape in the line up for Taylor. Whether you're a fingerstyle player or strummer, the Grand Auditorium body shape covers the most ground. Introduced to this model for 2026 are three major, game changing innovations.

Action Control Neck. A long-tenon neck joint design that not only improves tone and sustain but allows a qualified technician to adjust the neck angle in seconds with the strings still on and the guitar under tension. The result? The ability to set up the guitar for individual playing styles like never before.

Scalloped V Class Bracing. With changes to the internal architecture, the guitar now brings more low end and bloom to the table while embracing all sustain and intonation benefits of the original V Class bracing system.

And finally, Claria pickup system, a revolutionary active pick up system that redefines acoustic amplified tone with a proprietary high-definition, active, high-fidelity preamp and under the saddle pickup system. Simply put, the most plug and play pick up system with volume, tone, and contour shaping soundhole controls read more to achieve the ultimate amplified acoustic sound. The Next Generation 324ce also features an all-gloss finish on the body with a shaded-edge burst top, weathervane fretboard and peghead inlays, venetian cutaway, firestripe pickguard, and ships in a deluxe hardshell case.
