Mint, US-Made Taylor Grand Auditorium
Talk about a find. This pre-owned Taylor 414ce Studio is in stellar, near-mint condition—the factory plastic is still on the pickguard. This is your chance to get into a premium, US-made Grand Auditorium with the game-changing V-Class bracing without the brand-new price tag. The tonewood pairing is a classic for a reason: the articulate attack of a Torrefied Spruce top meets the rich, blooming overtones of Indian Rosewood. The result is a sound that’s both powerful and nuanced, perfect for the discerning player.
The Do-It-All Grand Auditorium
Taylor’s signature Grand Auditorium shape is the sweet spot of acoustic design. It’s big enough to deliver room-filling volume for strumming, but its tapered waist keeps the voice focused and balanced for intricate fingerstyle work. The Venetian cutaway isn’t just for looks—it offers buttery, effortless access to the upper frets, making this a true player’s guitar from top to bottom.
V-Class Bracing: A New Sonic Engine
Under the hood, this 414ce Studio is powered by Taylor’s revolutionary V-Class bracing. This isn’t just a minor tweak; it’s a complete redesign of the acoustic top. You’ll hear the difference immediately. Notes have more power and sustain for days, and the intonation is shockingly true all the way up the neck. Chords ring with a new level of harmonic purity, making this an incredible guitar for recording and live performance where clarity is key.
Stage-Ready ES2 Electronics
The Expression System® 2 captures the dynamic voice of this guitar with stunning accuracy. Taylor’s innovative behind-the-saddle pickup design translates all the nuance of the wood and your playing style into a natural, warm plugged-in tone. Whether you’re heading to an open mic or a stadium gig, the ES2 delivers your sound, authentically.
