Taylor 900-Series 914ce Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Spruce Top with Rosewood Back and Sides
SKU:7009-2011-914ce
Where Tone Matches Style
Taylor's most premium family of rosewood/spruce acoustic guitars, the 900 Series showcases top-grade craftsmanship, tonal sophistication and visual artistry. These all-solid-wood, U.S.-made guitars are built with Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce, an all-time great tonewood pairing that players love for its balance, warmth and articulation. That textured musical response takes a boost from V-Class bracing, which adds volume and sustain to all models. All 900-series models are stunningly adorned with deluxe appointments composed of Hawaiian koa, paua and pearl.
Highlights include a beveled ebony armrest that makes your picking/strumming arm more comfortable, along with Gotoh 510 tuners, whose 21:1 gear ratio allows for precise tuning. Refined appointments include ebony binding, our Ascension fretboard/peghead inlay in paua and pearl, a paua rosette with koa and ebony purfling, and paua/koa trim along much of the body and neck. All V-Class guitars feature a black graphite nut and a new guitar label that bears the signature of master guitar designer Andy Powers.
