Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built around Taylor’s Grand Auditorium shape, the 414ce Studio Special-Edition combines a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top with Indian rosewood back and sides. V-Class bracing supports its responsive, sustained voice, with clear single notes and even chord response described across the fretboard. The satin neo-tropical mahogany neck, ebony fingerboard, 25.5-inch scale and 1.6875-inch nut width define the playing layout. For amplified work, ES2 electronics provide onboard volume, bass, treble and phase adjustment.

- Players combining detailed chord voicings, lead lines, fingerstyle passages, and stronger flatpicked parts.
