Crafted with hand-friendly design features, an inspiring tonewood pairing and a suite of celebratory appointments, the 50th Anniversary Builder’s Edition 314ce LTD offers exceptional comfort, playability, tone and aesthetics. This ultra-refined version of one of the best-selling U.S.-made acoustics boasts a bevy of comfort-enhancing features: a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body edges and a contoured Curve Wing bridge. Urban Ash back and sides, responsibly sourced from Southern California, produce midrange power and balance akin to high-quality Honduran mahogany. Its solid Sitka spruce top offers a warm, punchy midrange, crisp trebles and impressive low-end presence. The body, which sports a firestripe pickguard, is finished with a vintage-vibed Kona burst and our smooth Silent Satin sheen. Like other 50th Anniversary Collection guitars, this versatile cutaway Grand Auditorium features a commemorative label inside, ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots and premium Gotoh 510 antique gold tuners. It comes with ES2 electronics and ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.

 

Features

50th Anniversary Collection: Celebrating five decades of guitar-making with special, limited-edition models crafted to showcase top-tier tonewoods, exquisite appointments, exacting craftsmanship and the innovative spirit that defines Taylor Guitar's legacy.

Grand Auditorium Body Shape: Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.

Urban Ash Back & Sides: Sourced from city trees in need of removal, Urban Ash produces midrange power and balance comparable to Honduran mahogany.

Sitka Spruce Top: The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.

Expression System 2 Electronics: The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Beveled Cutaway: Taylor's beveled cutaway design provides a more player-friendly feel for guitarists who utilize every inch of the fretboard. It features a compound design with a smoothened edge along the corner of the body between the end of the cutaway and the neck heel, providing a more comfortable feel for the fretting hand. 

V-Class Bracing: Taylor's patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
