Rare Sinker redwood
Stand out from the crowd. The 414ce LTD showcases a stunning Sinker Redwood top to enthral your audience. Sourced from the mighty old-growth Redwood logs that have sunk into Northern California rivers, Sinker Redwood boasts a gorgeous depth in colour, in addition to bold and vocal tones.
Its remarkable hues are drawn from the silt and mineral-rich water in which the wood has lain - which in most cases can be many decades! You can expect a rich and robust sound out of this tight-grained hardwood, with warm overtones and plenty of brightness.
Taylor's all-purpose Grand Auditorium shape
The take-anywhere, play-anywhere, play-anything shape! With enough low end to let strumming patterns shine, midrange presence to hold in a mix, and treble glimmer to bring out the nuance in your notes, the GA shape is a playing delight.
Formed into a versatile shape that's easy to wield but still offers ample volume, it's a design that works well in any application or genre. If you're after an all-purpose instrument for inspiration, look no further!
Enjoy exceptional playability
You won't want to put it down. The 414ce LTD Grand Auditorium serves up an addictive playing experience through its cutaway shape and Taylor pattern neck carve. Boasting a profile that's easy to grip and smooth to manoeuvre around thanks to its satin finish, the 414ce's neck is a joy to riff and chord on.
On top of that lies a West African Crelicam Ebony fretboard that presents an ultra-sleek playing surface. Offering a gorgeous, naturally dark hue and a black fretboard binding, it contrasts beautifully with the redwood top. And combined with the Venetian cutaway, you can explore the higher registers completely unhindered.
Produce ample volume and sustain through a V-Class Bracing
Underneath that attractive Sinker Redwood top is Taylor's V-Class bracing. Providing a solid rigidity along the centre while still allowing the soundboard to flex, you'll reveal full, consistent notes every time you strike the strings. And because the redwood is allowed to flex and vibrate for longer, your sustain is elevated to new levels!
Unrivalled amplified tones
Play with professional grade audio. Taylor's revolutionary under-saddle pickup design offers you a lifelike reproduction of your guitar's tone. Faithfully conveying the true character of your instrument through a PA or amplifier, you can be sure that your audience will hear the exact detail of your music, uncoloured and clear.
Hard shell case included
With such a beautiful guitar in your hands, you'll want to keep it safe! Luckily, the 414ce LTD includes a Taylor hardshell case to keep your prized guitar protected. It'll enable you to store it safely at home or get it to and from gigs without a scratch befalling it. It'll keep it looking good as new, with no extra hassle on your part!
