Taylor 300-Series 314ce Limited Edition 50th Anniversary Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Spruce Top with Sapele Back and Sides
Grand Auditorium Spruce Sapele
50th Anniversary 314ce LTD
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.
The 50th Anniversary 314ce LTD elevates one of the world's best-selling U.S.-made acoustic guitars to new heights. Featuring a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid sapele back and sides, this versatile Grand Auditorium produces a punchy midrange with a warm, woody low end to balance its sparkling trebles. V-Class bracing generates greater volume, sustain and harmony down the neck, while a special roasting process for the top adds a touch of aged-in depth and sweetness. A slightly darkened top with a subtle shaded edgeburst around the body and neck enhances the vintage character while a firestripe faux-tortoiseshell pickguard adds a bold visual touch. Other aesthetic details include gold tuners and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots. Like all 50th Anniversary Collection models, it features a celebratory limited-edition label, and production will be limited to 1,974 guitars worldwide. This model includes ES2 electronics and a hardshell case.

Grand Auditorium
Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.
Sitka Spruce Top
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
Sapele Back and Sides
One of the best all-around tonewoods there is, sapele will deliver for any playing style.
Expression System 2
The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
V-Class Bracing
Our 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.
