Whether you're a singer-songwriter searching for a first-rate guitar to fill out your sound or a working musician who needs a reliable acoustic with a versatile voice, you can't go wrong with the Special Edition 114ce.
The Taylor 114ce starts with a Grand Auditorium body, giving it a big, bold sound with exceptional clarity and articulation, making it a great choice for fingerstyle players and flatpickers alike. Its solid Sitka spruce top has a bright, crisp sound with strong fundamentals, and its layered walnut body adds high-end sparkle and midrange presence to its voice.

Just plug it into a PA, acoustic amp, or recording interface, and you'll be amazed by how faithfully the ES2 translates this guitar's woody, organic sound.
On top of its rich, pleasing tonal qualities, this model features numerous aesthetic appointments that give it a charming traditional look. Its satin sunburst finish has a slightly rustic appeal, while its chrome tuners, black pickguard, and three-ring rosette add an elegant component to its appearance.
Other features include an easy-playing hard rock maple neck, a sleek West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard, and a gig bag for safe transportation. If you've been searching for a well-designed all-purpose acoustic that can adapt to any style or setting, the Taylor Special Edition 114ce is an excellent choice.
