Presenting the Taylor Limited Edition 314CE-LTD 50th Anniversary Model Grand Auditorium.
Throughout 2024, the team at Taylor are releasing a curated collection of limited-edition guitars celebrating the diversity of their line. Some guitars in the collection draw inspiration from player-favorite models over the decades. Others showcase fine tonewoods, exquisite appointments and exacting craftsmanship, like their premium Presentation Series. An homage to their founding year, production will be limited to no more than 1,974 guitars worldwide for each model.
The 50th Anniversary 314ce LTD elevates one of the world's best-selling U.S.-made acoustic guitars to new heights.
Featuring a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, this versatile Grand Auditorium produces a punchy midrange with a warm, woody low end to balance its sparkling trebles. Taylor's V-Class bracing generates greater volume, sustain and harmony down the neck, while their special roasting process for the top adds a touch of aged-in depth and sweetness.
Taylor has enhanced the vintage character of the slightly darkened top with a subtle shaded edgeburst around the body and neck, while a firestripe faux-tortoiseshell pickguard adds a bold visual touch. Other aesthetic details include gold tuners and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots.
Like all 50th Anniversary Collection models, it features a celebratory limited-edition label, and production will be limited to 1,974 guitars worldwide. This model includes ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.
Photos are of one from our inventory, SN 1212203052, individual color and grain will vary from guitar to guitar.
