Taylor 114e Sitka/Walnut Grand Auditorium ES2 LEFTY w/Gig Bag
Taylors 100 series guitars are designed to produce rich tones at an accessible price. Serving up bold, assertive acoustic tone with strong projection from the solid spruce top, the layered walnut back and sides offer solid-sounding support in the lower registers, providing a dynamic response that makes these models a fitting choice for strummers, flatpickers, and fingerpickers alike.

Grand Auditorium
The brands flagship body shape, the Taylor Grand Auditoriums medium size offers balanced highs and supportive lows, making it a versatile choice thats fit for nearly any playing style. Boasting bold, balanced tone, the Taylor Grand Auditorium provides vibrant, well-defined sound across the entire tonal spectrum, thanks to a more tapered waist than a traditional dreadnought, making the Taylor Grand Auditorium the Swiss Army Knife of Taylors body shapes.

V-Class Bracing
The Taylor Grand Auditorium features Taylors innovative new V-Class bracing, which lets the soundboard of the guitar vibrate naturally, increasing sustain and overall cohesiveness, and generating additional volume without sacrificing sustain. This design puts the body more in tune with the strings, improving articulation and harmonic alignment, resulting in a sound that is optimally warm and seasoned, nicely blended, and full of luscious low end without being muddy.

ES2 Electronics
The Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) delivers the latest technology in Taylor acoustic guitar amplification. The heart of the ES2 system is Taylors patented behind-the-saddle pickup, featuring three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The new positioning enables the piezo pickups crystals to respond more naturally to the guitars energy as it is transferred through the saddle, with three pickup sensors installed behind the saddle, through the bridge, with three tiny Allen screws that calibrate the position of the sensors in relation to the saddle. Together with Taylors custom-designed preamp, this ES2 system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness.
