2008 Taylor 914CE with Sika Spruce and Rosewood

$3,650.00

Of all the body sizes manufactured by Taylor, the Grand Auditorium reigns supreme.  The popularity of the design can largely be attributed to the inherent versatility it offers.  The body shape itself could be described as that of a dreadnought that went on a diet, in that the upper and lower dimensions are consistent with a dreadnought, but the waistline is more indented.  This results in a body that still has much of the dimension, power, and depth of tone associated with a dreadnought, but the balance, clarity, and more refined presence of a smaller body. 

 

Though Taylor has introduced more flamboyant and more expensive guitars into their line over the years (most notably, the Presentation Series), one could make the argument that the 900 Series still holds the title as Taylor’s most classic showpiece. Rather than a glitzy explosion of ornamentation or an over the top pageantry of pearl, the 900-Series has just enough flash to suggest that it is classy enough to dress up for a night on the town without flaunting its higher status in life.

Condition:

 This guitar has been very well-maintained and has no significant wear or damage to report.    EXCELLENT+ CONDITION
