Urban Ash and Spruce Produce a Responsive, Balanced Tone

The 50th Anniversary 314ce LTD pairs Urban Ash back and sides with a solid Sitka spruce top. Sourced from city trees in need of removal, Urban Ash produces midrange power and balance comparable to Honduran mahogany. This gives the guitar a versatile voice that suits fingerstyle, strumming and flatpicking. The spruce imbues the tone with richness, clarity and sustain. Together, they produce dynamic responsiveness and tonal balance. Players will love the 314ce LTD's singing voice, ideal for the stage or studio.

Plug In to the ES2 Pickup System for Exceptional Amplified Tone

The 314ce LTD comes equipped with Taylor's innovative ES2 electronics. With a patented behind-the-saddle pickup design, the ES2 accurately captures the guitar's intricate acoustic sound. The three calibrated pickup sensors enable expanded dynamic range when amplified. Paired with Taylor's clear-voiced preamp, the ES2 pickup system produces outstanding amplified tone. Plug into your favorite acoustic amp or PA, and be amazed by the 314ce LTD's acoustic-electric versatility.
