Product Description

Warmth, Punch, and Effortless Playability

Meet the Taylor 24ce—a guitar that just feels right. From the first strum, you’ll get that classic mahogany warmth—a focused, woody tone that’s perfect for both powerful chording and delicate fingerstyle passages. Taylor’s Grand Auditorium body shape is the ultimate all-rounder, comfortable to hold yet big enough to deliver impressive projection and a rich low end.

Tone-Shaping Powerhouse

The magic here starts with the solid Neo-Tropical Mahogany top, a tonewood loved for its strong, punchy midrange. Paired with layered Sapele back and sides, you get a sound that’s both vibrant and incredibly resilient to changes in climate. Driving it all is Taylor’s C-Class bracing, an innovative internal architecture that lets the top move more freely, creating more volume, longer sustain, and a surprising amount of bass response for a guitar this size.

Plug In and Play

When you’re ready to hit the stage, the onboard Fishman Sonitone GT2 electronics have you covered. This system is designed to capture the guitar’s natural acoustic voice, translating all that woody goodness into a clear, authentic amplified tone. The controls are tucked discreetly inside the soundhole, preserving the guitar’s clean look while giving you easy access to volume and tone adjustments.

The Legendary Taylor Neck

If you know Taylor, you know their necks are something special. The 24ce features a smooth Hard Rock Maple neck with Taylor’s Standard Carve profile. It’s a comfortable, slim shape that feels instantly familiar and plays fast, without ever fighting you. The West African Crelicam Ebony fingerboard provides a glassy, articulate surface for every note, making long sessions and complex chord shapes a total breeze.

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

Think of it as a secret weapon for tone. C-Class bracing is a special internal architecture that allows the mahogany top to vibrate more freely. For you, that means a surprising boost in volume, longer-lasting notes, and a warmer, more powerful bass response than you’d expect from a Grand Auditorium guitar.
Unlike a brighter spruce top, a mahogany top—like the one on the 24ce—delivers a warmer, woodier, and more focused sound. It has a really strong, punchy midrange that’s awesome for recording because it sits in a mix so well. It’s a favorite for blues, folk, and singer-songwriters.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 14-Day Return Policy. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
If you order before 3 PM CST on a weekday, it ships the same day. We’ll get it into your hands fast with free, insured 2-3 day shipping.
Call us at (888) 794-8482. You’ll talk to a real musician who can answer anything you need to know.
