Critic Reviews

Taylor 2015 614ce review | MusicRadar

musicradar.com

Taylor's 2015 614ce Cutaway Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar is a remarkable evolution of a classic design, showcasing the company's innovative use of solid maple. While its price tag is steep, the guitar offers versatile tones and the high build quality expected from Taylor. The instrument's unique 'Brown Sugar' stained maple back and sides, coupled with its advanced bracing and torrefied Sitka spruce top, deliver a focused midrange with substantial bass, making it a standout choice for contemporary fingerstyle players. However, the hefty cost may deter some potential buyers.
