The Special Edition 50th Anniversary model of the top-selling Taylor 414ce acoustic-electric guitar features a gorgeous, solid sinker redwood top, solid rosewood back and sides, V-Class bracing and Taylor ES2 pickup system. The recovered, old-growth redwood used in the construction of the Special Edition 414ce was harvested from trees submerged for more than 100 years at the bottom of California riverbeds.

“I’m normally an electric player, so jumping to a Taylor acoustic is always so friendly on the hands,” says Educator, USC professor and guitarist Dr. Molly Miller (Jason Mraz, Zayn). “The Special Edition 414ce 50th Anniversary really showcases what Taylor is all about—playability, sustain, evenness across different tonal ranges and attention to detail. The sinker redwood looks amazing against the guitar’s shaded-edge burst. This is a beautiful guitar.”
