V-Class braced Taylor blends projection, warmth and playability.
The Taylor 614ce special-edition acoustic-electric guitar provides serious musicians with a bold tone and effortless playability. The Grand Auditorium body shape delivers a versatile sound with articulate lows, balanced mids and shimmering highs, perfect for fingerpicking or strumming. The figured maple back and sides pair with a Sitka spruce top for a warm, resonant tone with plenty of projection.
Figured Maple Body Resonates Warmth
The 614ce Special Edition's maple back and sides impart a touch of crispness to balance the Sitka spruce top's warmth and depth. Together, these premium tonewoods produce a balanced midrange-centric voice that flatters fingerpicking or strumming. The Grand Auditorium body provides comfortable playability and projects well when unplugged. Maple's striking figure beneath the guitar's Charcoal Edge Burst finish gives this Taylor an upscale appearance to match its resonant voice.
V-Class Bracing Optimizes Your Guitar's Potential
Taylor's patentedV-Class bracing is a pivotal innovation that improves your 614ce Special Edition's acoustic potential in three ways: boosting volume, sustain and pitch accuracy. V-Class bracing creates notes that ring fully, clearly and consistently for a pure musical experience. Your guitar will be highly responsive, with notes that bloom and decay agreeably. V-Class bracing also makes tuning quicker and electronic tuners can locate notes precisely. Overall, V-Class bracing optimizes your guitar's tonal balance and playability.
