Product information

A versatile Grand Auditorium built with solid sapele and Sitka spruce, offering Taylor’s signature playability and a balanced voice suited for everything from fingerstyle to full strumming.

The Taylor 314ce has long been one of the company’s most popular models, and for good reason. Built with solid sapele back and sides and a Sitka spruce top, it delivers a balanced, versatile voice with clear trebles, a punchy midrange, and a warm, woody low end. The Grand Auditorium body shape keeps things comfortable in the lap while offering the kind of dynamic range that works just as well for fingerstyle as it does for strumming.

Taylor’s V-Class bracing adds a little extra headroom and sustain while helping notes stay clear and in tune up the neck. The slim Taylor neck carve remains one of the easiest-playing profiles out there, and the updated neck design allows for quick, precise action adjustments when needed.

Appointments are simple and tasteful - Weathervane inlays, a firestripe pickguard, and clean black binding - giving the 314ce a classic, workhorse look.

Taylor’s Claria electronics system handles amplification with a natural, balanced tone, making this an easy guitar to take from the living room to your next jam or gig. A hardshell case is included.
