Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this guitar after first looking at the 410ce, which is also an amazing guitar. The 414ce is for me a perfect guitar, and in my opinion out-played and out-sounded guitars from Martin and other brands that cost far more. The neck of this guitar and the action on the strings has an almost electric guitar feel (at least it feels similar to my Fender Strat). The sound, both as-is and amplified, is vibrant and clear.
It would be very hard for me to imagine you being unhappy with this guitar. I absolutely love it.

Ovangkol lends exotic flare to the 414ce, with a tone many find similar to Indian rosewood. Providing access to the upper registers of the fingerboard, the soft Venetian cutaway is both practical and attractive, and dramatically outlined with contrasting white binding. The Expression System pickup completes the package on this popular acoustic/electric guitar.
Taylor's Grand Auditorium ShapeThe Grand Auditorium was the first guitar shape designed from scratch by Bob Taylor. It was unveiled to commemorate the company's 20th Anniversary in 1994, and since then it has more than lived up to its promise. Although the GA has the width and depth of a Dreadnought, its narrower waist gives it the appearance of a smaller instrument, adds treble "zing" across the guitars tonal spectrum, sharpens the definition of individual notes, and also enables it to rest comfortably in the lap. Because Taylor removed mass from the width of the GAs braces, the guitar top moves faster, resulting in a snappy, bell-like tone. The GA is designed to be a strong fingerpicking guitar that also can handle medium strumming, and is exceptionally versatile.
A Venetian cutaway in the 414ce Grand Auditorium body allows better access to the upper frets. In the past, many players moving to acoustic guitars grew accustomed to the cutaways on their electric guitars, while others simply like the freedom of movement into the upper register that a cutaway allows. Now, cutaways are favored as much for their decorative appeal as for their function.
Solid sitka spruce top is joined with ovangkol sides and back for a tone similar to rosewood, but with the livelier sparkle of mahogany.
