Production limited to 1,974 guitars worldwide.

Taylor is thrilled to introduce the Builder’s Edition 314ce LTD, a part of Taylor’s 50th-
anniversary limited-edition 300 Series. Featuring Urban Ash back and sides, a Sitka spruce top, and hand-pleasing details—a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body edges, and Curve Wing bridge—this guitar is a player’s delight. The ash showcases a deep tobacco color, bringing out the wood grain richness. Choose from a natural or Kona burst top, accented with a firestripe pickguard. In both cases, the body sports a Silent Satin finish.

Appointments include Compass inlays, silver side dots, black/Ivoroid edge trim, Italian acrylic rosette, and Gotoh 510 tuners in Antique Gold. The guitar features ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots and a 50th-anniversary label. It comes with ES2 electronics and ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.

Tonally, Urban Ash combines mahogany and koa properties, offering a focused, even
response that suits a wide range of playing styles. Paired with a spruce top and
V-Class voicing, players will love the clarity, projection, sustain, and responsiveness. With ergonomic features, aesthetic appeal, and sonic versatility, this is a high-performance, high-inspiration instrument.
