Description
Offering the accommodating feel and vibrant sound of a full-size, standard-scale cutaway Grand Auditorium, the Taylor 14ce delivers great value for players in search of a versatile, reliable acoustic-electric. Layered African sapele back and sides paired with a solid torrefied spruce top produce a clear, articulate voice with impressive projection and a touch of sweetness, thanks to our special roasting process that adds warmth and maturity to the tone. Cantilevered V-Class voicing architecture inside the guitar enhances the sustain, volume and low-end response, while a slender, heelless maple neck delivers familiar Taylor playability. Minimalist appointments like a matte finish, 4mm dot inlays and faux-tortoiseshell pickguard add to the 14ce’s understated visual appeal. It ships in a gig bag with an onboard Fishman Sonitone GT-2 pickup for amplified play across a wide range of musical settings.

Grand Auditorium
Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.
Sapele
Back and sides, one of the best all-around tonewoods there is, sapele will deliver for any playing style.
The Taylor Neck
Introduced in 1999, the patented Taylor Neck offers legendary playing comfort, exceptional intonation and easy adjustability.
Torrefied Spruce
Treated with our special roasting process, torrefied spruce tops deliver all the clarity, balance and projection you’d expect from a traditional spruce top with an extra dash of warmth and played-in depth.
Fishman Sonitone GT2
Featuring soundhole-mounted volume and tone controls, the Fishman Sonitone GT2 delivers clear, authentic acoustic tone in Taylor models designed with beginners and everyday players in mind.
Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
