Taylor Next Generation 324ce Acoustic Electric Guitar

The Taylor Next Generation 324ce delivers a distinctive, midrange-rich voice built around an all-solid mahogany-and-sapele tonewood pairing. Featuring a solid neo-tropical mahogany top with solid sapele back and sides, this Grand Auditorium model produces a focused, warm response with smooth compression and excellent note definition. The result is an acoustic that feels immediately familiar yet offers a darker, woodier character than spruce-topped alternatives, making it an ideal choice for roots, folk, blues and singer-songwriter styles.

This latest-generation 324ce benefits from Taylor’s most significant recent design updates, including scalloped V-Class bracing for improved low-end depth, sustain and pitch accuracy, along with the new long-tenon Action Control Neck™ for enhanced resonance and effortless string-height adjustment. For live performance, Claria™ electronics provide clear, reliable amplified tone with intuitive soundhole-mounted controls. Finished in a full-body gloss with shaded edgeburst top, Weathervane inlays and a firestripe pickguard, the 324ce blends understated elegance with serious performance credentials, and ships in a deluxe Taylor hardshell case.
