Pre-owned in good condition, this Taylor 514ce sounds amazing with a Western Red Cedar Top and Tropical Mahogany back & sides. This guitar plays beautifully as we've come to expect from Taylor guitars.
There are some signs of wear and age on this 2004 model with some small marks and scratches from use. Unfortunately a battery has previously leaked in the battery compartment resulting in a pickup that is no longer functional. This older system is no longer made by Taylor but an updated Taylor system or LR Baggs could be installed in the future to bring back the gigging capabilities of this guitar.
The frets are in exceptional shape for a 22 year old instrument and it has been freshly setup. A great playing Taylor you don't want to put down.
This is a fantastic find for the player wanting a recording quality Taylor at a great reduced price. Comes with original hardshell case.
Grand Auditorium
Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.
Tropical Mahogany
A midrange powerhouse. Mahogany is prized for balance and articulation, making it one of the best all-around tonewoods there is.
The Taylor Neck
Introduced in 1999, the patented Taylor Neck offers legendary playing comfort, exceptional intonation and easy adjustability.
Western Red Cedar
A true performer for those with a lighter touch, cedar tops yield extra warmth and pair nicely with mahogany and rosewood.
Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
