Description
A Masterpiece of Tonewoods and Craftsmanship
The Taylor PS14ce Presentation Series is a pinnacle of lutherie—where premium materials meet visionary craftsmanship. At its heart is a Grand Auditorium body, Taylor’s flagship shape revered for its exceptional versatility, comfort, and dynamic voice. This PS14ce pairs exquisite Honduran rosewood back and sides with a rare sinker redwood top, delivering a tone that is deep, resonant, and brimming with harmonic complexity.
Honduran rosewood is prized for its muscular low-end response, crystalline highs, and lush, blooming overtones. Complementing it, the sinker redwood top—reclaimed from century-old logs submerged in California riverbeds—offers the warmth and responsiveness of cedar, but with greater headroom and dynamic range.
Refined touches like the radius armrest, ebony backstrap, and Simons wedge back design elevate both aesthetics and player comfort. Premium paua shell edge trim, ebony binding, and high-ratio Gotoh 510 tuners underscore its elite status, while Taylor’s Expression System® 2 electronics ensure that every nuance of your playing is faithfully captured on stage or in the studio.
