Taylor Truetone Custom Select 614ce Maple with Sitka Spruce Natural With Case - REDO SPECS
Truetone Music is proud to be part of an exclusive group of dealers in the Taylor Custom Select program. Within it, we have the opportunity to bring a truly unique instrument to life. Having a full range of model options, tonewoods, body shapes, aesthetic details and design features at our disposal, we work to bring the best guitar we can to the table, at the best value. The goal is to select specifications that match playing styles and musical sensibilities, offering a one-of-a-kind heirloom-quality instrument.
Taylor Truetone Custom Select guitars are all one-off pieces. Here we have a stellar 614ce Maple, unlike any other out there. After admiring the photos, you can read all about it below.
This Taylor Truetone Custom Select 614ce boasts a stunning body made of Maple, paired with a Sitka Spruce top. We specifically chose this combination while working with Taylor on the design of this guitar. It yields a warm, played-in sound from the first strum along with maple's highly player-reflective character. Inside, the V-Class bracing adds volume and sustain that complement the top's extra sweetness and depth. You get an enhanced, defined tone not normally found on acoustics made of rosewood, mahogany or koa. Maple has a unique character - it's a harder wood, so you get a snap and precision that's hard to replicate with other woods. The Sitka Spruce top levels that out, and the result is a guitar that brings a unique flavor to the table. A wide variety of players can appreciate this wood combination, whether it be for fingerstyle or heavy strumming and everything in between.
The Grand Auditorium Body shape is Taylor’s most well-known and favored design, comfortable and easy to play. It's big enough to project well but small enough to be comfortable. The Venetian cutaway makes accessing the upper register quite easy. This guitar has Taylor's standard carve neck profile, which is slim without being skinny and comfortable to grip for hours. The neck has a satin finish for smoothness. A unique feature to this custom build is that we chose Smokey Ebony for the fretboard and peghead overlay - this is something you don't see often, if at all.
The body is accented by Black binding - we didn't want to distract from the grain of the Maple. It has a beautiful Abalone rosette, which matches the rest of the guitar perfectly. We chose Mini Diamond inlays for the fretboard to add some character. Other unique features include Taylor Satin Black tuners, a Firestripe pickguard and Ebony bridge pins with abalone dots (something we've done on all of our Custom Select guitars).
The guitar comes equipped with an L.R. Baggs Element VTC pickup/preamp. As much as we love Taylor's own ES2 system, we chose to go another route with this guitar. Part of the reasoning was to avoid any routing on the body - all of the controls are internal. Most importantly, we feel that the Element brings a "true" amplification to the guitar - in that it doesn't color the sound at all. If you're getting a guitar with these tonewoods, you want that tone to be pure when it comes out of the amp. You can still control it, from the soundhole. There's a good reason that our shop has installed the Element VTC in many guitars over the years - and it's because it's one of the best systems out there.
This Taylor Custom Select 614ce Maple is a magnificent guitar, only available here - come to Truetone Music to experience it today, or order right here to be shipped safely to your home.
