The Best Acoustic Electric Guitar

INTRODUCING

TAYLOR 114E - GRAND AUDITORIUM ACOUSTIC ELECTRIC GUITAR

The 114e features our popular Grand Auditorium body style, whose physical dimensions have made it a popular choice for its appealing performance versatility. Layered walnut back and sides are topped with a solid Sitka spruce soundboard, which together produce signature clear and balanced tone with a pleasing projection and midrange focus. The 1-11/16-inch nut width is slightly narrower than the standard 1-3/4-inch width of other steel-strings in the 300 Series and up, making it easier for developing players to navigate the fretboard. And with Taylor’s onboard Expression System 2 pickup, the guitar is ready to plug in whenever you are. The guitar ships in a durable lightweight gig bag.

All of our TAYLOR 114E guitar comes with a 1 year local warranty

We set-up all our acoustic guitars before they leave our store.

This basic but professional service covers several check points including string tuning, polish & clean, testing of electronics, joint checks and adjusting the instrument neck to an optimum distance between fretboard and string.

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

Any buzzing issues up to the 12th fret, which is where guitar action is generally measured.
Addressing and resetting any potential bridge uplift issues within reasonable tolerance.
Repair and/or replacement of any electronics arising from any manufacturing defect.

Do note that guitars are made of wood and wood is susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity. These factors may limit adjustment or reconditioning work. We recommend that you set-up your guitar annually to protect your investment.
