Own a cinematic icon with the playability of a modern Taylor. The Taylor 314c The Last of Us Replica brings the look, feel, and inspiring tone of the guitar seen throughout HBO’s acclaimed series into the hands of Australian players. Cloaked in a moody Satin Tobacco Sunburst, appointed with the distinctive grained ivoroid Moth inlay at the 3rd fret, and sculpted in Taylor’s beloved Grand Auditorium silhouette, this faithful tribute is more than a showpiece—it’s a stage- and studio-ready acoustic crafted to make every note speak clearly and musically.
At its core lies a responsive solid Sitka spruce top supported by Taylor’s innovative V-Class bracing. The result is a livelier, more in-tune acoustic voice with enhanced sustain and projection—perfect for open chords that bloom, leads that sing, and fingerstyle lines that sit beautifully in a mix. Paired with sapele back and sides, the 314c balances warm low-end focus with articulate mids and shimmering highs, giving you a versatile tonal platform that handles folk, indie, worship, country, and contemporary pop with equal confidence.
This model mirrors the on-screen instrument’s key visual cues: the autumnal sunburst that shifts under the light, the Venetian cutaway that invites melodic exploration, and that unmistakable 3rd-fret Moth inlay set into a smooth ebony fingerboard. A comfortable mahogany neck carved to Taylor’s Standard profile feels fast and familiar from the first chord, while the 1.75" nut width keeps fingerstyle passages clean without making first-position chords a stretch. Up top, Taylor nickel tuning machines provide precise, reliable tuning—ideal for capos, alternate tunings, and long sessions.
Taylor’s Grand Auditorium (GA) body blends the breadth and depth associated with dreadnoughts with a slightly narrower waist for improved comfort and a touch more treble definition. In practical terms, that means strummers get plenty of punch and headroom, while fingerstylists enjoy a quick, articulate response with excellent string-to-string balance. The GA shape also records beautifully: you’ll capture detail without boominess, and rhythm parts will sit in a track without getting lost.
The V-Class braced Sitka top reacts dynamically to your touch: whisper-quiet passages retain clarity; full-throttle strums stay controlled and musical. Sapele—often compared to mahogany for its warmth but prized for its focused, articulate character—adds a pleasing midrange definition that keeps mixes tidy on stage and in the studio. Whether you’re exploring fingerpicked folk, percussive modern techniques, or bold singer-songwriter strums, the 314c answers with a airy top, supportive lows, and a present but never harsh midrange.
