Taylor 614ce review

guitar.com

Taylor's 614ce with ES2 Electronics is a refined blend of innovation and craftsmanship, transforming the maple guitar stereotype with a torrefied spruce top and redesigns that enhance resonance and responsiveness. Its aesthetic upgrades, like the rich Brown Sugar stain and elegant ebony detailing, complement its dynamic sound profile, which balances clarity with unexpected warmth and depth. While the neck's comfort is a Taylor hallmark, a bit of fret buzz may require some tweaking. The ES2 system is straightforward, offering quack-free tones that are easy to adjust. Although not budget-friendly, this model is a luxurious, well-rounded instrument that sets the stage for maple's sustainable future in high-end guitars.

Taylor 614ce Acoustic Review | Performer Mag

The Taylor 614ce, featuring the innovative V-bracing system, is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and sound. Its roasted Sitka spruce top and "Brown Sugar" stained maple back and sides create a visually stunning aesthetic. The guitar plays effortlessly with a neck that's as smooth as satin, making it a joy for any musician. Acoustically, it offers a balanced sound with perfect intonation across the board. Taylor's unique ES2 electronics add an open sound, avoiding harsh treble spikes. While the $3499 price tag is steep, the quality, design, and playability make it a worthy investment. No negatives were noted in the review.
