Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Taylor’s Next Generation 324ce is a right-handed Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric built around a solid mahogany top and sapele body. Its scalloped V-Class bracing is designed for sustain, projection and harmonic depth, while the Venetian cutaway reaches the upper frets. Claria electronics use soundhole-mounted controls for amplified operation. The long-tenon Action Control neck allows string-height adjustments without taking the strings off, giving players a practical way to refine setup as their needs change.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Acoustic players who want onboard electronics for amplified rehearsals, recording, or live sets.
- Players who need access to upper frets through a Venetian cutaway.
- Musicians who want to adjust string height without removing the strings.
