The Best Acoustic Electric Guitar

INTRODUCING

TAYLOR 114E - GRAND CONCERT ACOUSTIC ELECTRIC GUITAR

 

The cutaway Grand Concert 312ce is a great option for players who favor the comfort and intimate feel of a small-body acoustic and want a cutaway and an onboard pickup. Sapele shares mahogany’s lively tonal response and, together with a Sitka spruce top, rings out with a brightness and clarity that give these guitars a definitive Taylor voice. Featured appointments include black binding, a black pickguard, Italian acrylic small diamond fretboard inlays, and a 3-ring rosette. The guitar incorporates a Venetian cutaway, comes equipped with Taylor’s dynamic Expression System 2 pickup, and ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.

Our set-up warranty will cover the following areas up to a year from the date of purchase:

  1. Any buzzing issues up to the 12th fret, which is where guitar action is generally measured.
