Crafted for the discerning musician in the Gold Coast QLD area and beyond, this guitar is a masterpiece of design and performance.

The top is expertly fashioned from solid Sitka spruce, chosen for its outstanding clarity and balanced acoustic output. Underneath this exquisite surface, Taylor's revolutionary V-Class bracing enhances the sound projection and increases sustain, enriching every note with harmonic richness whether played acoustically or amplified.

This model is not only a sonic marvel but also a joy to play. The ergonomic features include a beveled lower bout and a cutaway in the Grand Auditorium body, making it supremely comfortable for both strumming and fingerstyle players. The neck, made from quality mahogany and topped with a Crelicam ebony fingerboard, features a standard carve profile and 20 frets adorned with distinctive compass inlays, ensuring playability and visual elegance.

When amplified, the Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics deliver impeccable sound fidelity. This innovative setup includes a behind-the-saddle pickup with triple sensors that accurately capture the dynamic range of the guitar's tone. The control layout, featuring Phase, Volume, and a 2-band EQ, allows for easy adjustments to suit any performance environment.

Every detail of the 314ce Builder's Edition is designed to ensure a flawless playing experience. The Gotoh 510 tuners with antique gold finish not only add a touch of classic aesthetic but are engineered for precise tuning stability. The Graph Tech black TUSQ nut and the custom Crelicam ebony bridge with gold-dotted pins enhance string vibration for a consistent and reliable sound across all playing conditions.
