These include a new variant of our V-Class® voicing architecture, a revolutionary neck joint design and a new proprietary pickup\/preamp combo that tames the harshness of traditional piezos.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis versatile model boasts solid sapele back and sides paired with a Sitka spruce top in a gloss-finish Grand Auditorium body. The result is a punchy, shimmering midrange with vibrant trebles balanced by a warm, woody low end. Its tonal depth is enhanced by new scalloped V-Class bracing, which also increases volume, sustain and pitch accuracy. A slender, long-tenon Action Control Neck™ delivers signature Taylor playability and boosts low-end resonance. The groundbreaking design enables players to make easy, on-the-fly string height adjustments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith a visual style to match its workhorse personality, this model features new Weathervane inlays in Italian acrylic, a firestripe pickguard, nickel tuners and black binding with black and white purfling. Whether you’re performing in the corner of a café or on a festival stage, onboard Claria System electronics make it easy to dial in your preferred amplified tone with soundhole-mounted controls. Plus, a hardshell case offers premium protection for storage and transport. All in all, the 314ce makes a strong case as the ultimate Swiss-army-knife guitar.\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: Scalloped V-Class Bracing with Relief Rout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCutaway: Venetian Cutaway\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eElectronics: Claria™ Pickup System\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCase\/Bag: Brown Taylor Deluxe Hard Shell Case\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: Sitka Spruce\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBack\/Side Wood: Sapele\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRosette: White (.047\") Single Ring\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBack Configuration: 2-piece No Wedge\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBody Binding: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eArmrest: No\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\u003eNeck Profile: Standard Carve\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFretboard Inlay: Faux Pearl Weathervane\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFretboard Binding: Black\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: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eScale Length: 25-1\/2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePeghead Inlay: Faux Pearl Weathervane\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePeghead Type: Paddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePeghead Binding: None\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePeghead Finish: Satin\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: Black Tusq Nut, White Micarta Saddle\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBridge Pins: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStrings: D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light (.012 - .053)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePickguard: Firestripe\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTuners: Taylor Nickel with Nickel Buttons\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStrap Pin: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEnd Pin: Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\n\nManufacturer: Taylor Guitars\u003cbr\u003eModel: A308002118400030093\u003cbr\u003eSKU: I875469-N-0-WHXC\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 887766143338\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.
