Details
We’ve always been big fans of Taylor's maple guitars so we were really excited to get our hands on the new 614ce Builder’s Edition, which features a good helping of Andy Powers’ very cool enhancements. Along with the new V-Class bracing, this boasts a beveled armrest, beveled body edge treatment, and a reshaped cutaway that flows smoothly into the heel and incorporates a finger bevel where the cutaway meets the soundboard. Other refinements include “silent” satin finish, which helps quiet the incidental noise against the guitar body. The top is torrefied Sitka spruce and the back and sides are maple, a combo that produces a sweet, mellow tone that responds to the lightest touch but holds up under the most robust strumming.
