This exclusive Legacy collection model boasts a tonewood pairing not found in the Taylor standard line: mahogany back and sides with a top of Western Red cedar. With its punchy midrange and dry, woody character, mahogany is perfectly suited to pair with cedar's warmth and soft-touch sensitivity, which will especially appeal to fingerstyle players and strummers with a lighter stroke. Voiced with the X-bracing that Bob used in the first Grand Auditorium models three decades ago and crafted with Taylor's signature slim, easy-playing neck profile, the Legacy 514ce is sure to inspire both traditionalists and contemporary-minded players alike. Appointments reflect Bob's preferred sleek aesthetic with faux tortoiseshell binding and pickguard, white and black top purfling, Small Diamond fretboard inlays in mother-of-pearl, a three-ring rosette in green abalone, ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots, gold tuning machines, and a gloss-finished body with a satin finish for the neck. This model includes LR Baggs Element VTC electronics with soundhole-mounted controls and ships with a deluxe hardshell case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHighlights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNumber of Strings: 6 String\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrientation: Right Handed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Shape: Grand Auditorium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBracing System: X-Bracing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCutaway: Venetian Cutaway\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Natural\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBody\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Wood: Western Red Cedar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack\/Side Wood: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRosette: Green Abalone 3 Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack Configuration: 2-piece No Wedge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBody Binding: Faux Tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArmrest: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTop Finish: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack\/Side Finish: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNeck\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Wood: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Wood: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Inlay: Mother-of-Pearl Small Diamonds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFretboard Binding: Faux Tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeck Finish: Satin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePeghead\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut Width: 1-3\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Veneer Wood: Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25-1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Inlay: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Type: Paddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Binding: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePeghead Finish: Gloss\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eOther\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNut \u0026amp; Saddle: White TUSQ Nut, White Micarta Saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBridge Pins: West African Crelicam Ebony with Green Abalone Dots\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings: D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light (.012 - .053)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePickguard: Tortoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTuners: Taylor Gold with Gold Buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrap Pin: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnd Pin: Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Taylor Guitars\u003cbr\u003eModel: A505002118400110000\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I884335-N-1-WHXC\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 887766144502\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWe are Chuck Levin's Washington Music Center\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSince 1958, Chuck Levin’s Washington Music Center has been the trusted destination for musicians and audio professionals across Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C.
