The Taylor 414ce Studio SEB is a Grand Auditorium acoustic electric guitar for players who want the depth of solid Indian rosewood with a clear, responsive spruce top. The torrefied Sitka spruce brings warmth and a played in character to the attack, while rosewood adds a rich low end, clear trebles and layered overtones. It is a useful combination when your playing moves between fingerstyle passages, picked melodies and full chords.

A versatile voice for writing, recording and performing

Taylor's V Class bracing is designed to increase volume and sustain while improving pitch accuracy. That gives this guitar a strong foundation for solo playing and recording, where the way notes ring together matters as much as the initial attack. The Venetian cutaway gives you access to the upper fretboard without giving up the familiar Grand Auditorium body.

Comfortable neck and onboard electronics

The satin finished mahogany neck pairs a standard carve with a 1 11/16 inch nut width and a West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard. If you prefer a narrower nut, that is an important detail to compare when you try it. Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics let you connect to a suitable acoustic amplifier, PA or recording setup for amplified playing.

Shaded Edgeburst finish

SEB identifies the Shaded Edgeburst top. A gloss finished body highlights the spruce and rosewood, while the satin neck keeps the playing surface distinct from the body finish. A tan structured gig bag with burgundy plush lining is included for storage and transport.
