With layered walnut back and sides combined with a solid Sitka spruce top, the 114ce-Special Edition Gloss delivers a bright, balanced tone that adapts beautifully to various playing styles and music genres. With player-friendly contours and the slim, easily playable Taylor neck, this acoustic-electric guitar is sure to appeal to a wide audience. It includes black binding, black/white/black top purfling, a three-ring white rosette, 4 mm dot fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic, a black pickguard, cast chrome tuning machines, and a glossy finish for the body. Walnut wood is layered for the sides and back.

The guitar features ES2 electronics and comes with a structured gig bag for storage and transport.

At the heart of the Expression System 2 is Taylor's patented 'behind-the-saddle pickup', which features three unique positions and individually calibrated, light-sensitive sensors. The location of the sensors enables capturing a dynamic range of an acoustic sound more than ever before.
