Overview
Next Generation Builder's Edition 514ce
Featuring a unique combination of Sitka spruce and responsibly sourced Shamel ash, this Builder's Edition Grand Auditorium offers an enticing blend of focused midrange tone and exceptional playing comfort. The pairing of spruce and Shamel ash delivers a woody, dry response with controlled overtones and remarkable warmth, resonance and sustain thanks to the scalloped V-Class bracing inside, while our long-tenon Action Control Neck adds more low-end presence while making it easy to dial in the perfect string height for any playing style or scenario. Performing players will appreciate the ease and broad utility of the Claria undersaddle pickup system, which features soundhole-mounted Volume, Mid-contour and Tone controls. The Next Generation Builder's Edition 514ce sports a beveled armrest, matching cutaway and chamfered body edges for a truly intimate, seamless feel, with ultra-precise Gotoh 510 tuning machines to cap the player-friendly feature package. Visual details include a single-ring Italian acrylic rosette, matching Compass inlays, a firestripe pickguard and a gloss finish with a natural top and a Kona Burst on the back, sides, and neck.
Features
Next-Generation Features Meet Bold Midrange Sound
Shamel ash, Sitka spruce, scalloped V-Class bracing and other Next-Gen innovations add up to an exceptionally accommodating playing experience that produces rich, woody midrange character.
Shamel Ash
Sourced from city trees in need of removal, Shamel ash produces midrange power and balance comparable to Honduran mahogany.
Action Control Neck
Building on Taylor’s legacy of easy-playing necks, the new Action Control Neck pairs a long-tenon joint for added warmth and depth with a patented system for effortless string height adjustment.
Sitka Spruce
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
Beveled Cutaway
Our beveled cutaway design provides a more player-friendly feel for guitarists who utilize every inch of the fretboard. It features a compound design with a smoothened edge along the corner of the body between the end of the cutaway and the neck heel, providing a more comfortable feel for the fretting hand.
