Taylor proudly presents the 714ce Next Generation acoustic electric guitar. Powerful refinements for this guitar take the classic rosewood and cedar model and create something amazingly unique. The guitar starts with all solid woods consisting of solid Indian Rosewood for the back and sides, and western red Cedar for the top. The rosewood back and sides give the guitar that classic scooped midrange tone while the cedar top evokes a warmer sound, great for finger-style to light and moderate strumming. The Grand Auditorium body shape is the most versatile body shape in the line up for Taylor. Whether you're a finger-style player or strummer, the Grand Auditorium body shape covers the most ground.

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 pick up system, a revolutionary active pick up system that redefines acoustic amplified tone with a proprietary high definition, active high fidelity pre amp and under the saddle pick read more up system. Simply put, the most plug and play pick up system with volume, tone, and contour shaping sound hole controls to achieve the ultimate amplified acoustic sound. The Next generation 714ce also features an all gloss finish on the body, white plastic binding, reflections fretboard and peg head inlays, venetian cutaway, faux tortoise pickguard, and ships in a deluxe hard shell case.
