    I do not come back on the characteristics that have dj t cit but dwell on the realization.

    Wood slectionns are good quality and the mcaniques prcises and stable. Cepandant Specifications manufacturing parat me strange. First observation: the guitar is heavy, which is for my rdibitoire hand on a massive quality acoustics. Either the wood are not dry enough or the thickness setting of the wooden box is insufficient, or internal dam is standard. Obviously there is a bit of everything ...
    SECOND observation: the finish is far from being exemplary. Certainly the satin varnish of the body is pleasant and well applied but the rest left to be desired. Cash nets jointent not all correctly and those of the button, the hoop is very average and saddles are ... Plastic !!! The handle is not rgl and very poorly prepares guitar (adjustment of saddles, finishing frets ...)

    USE

    The handle is comfortable with a flat profile and a width at nut average. I find cepandant wear the sleeves to the profile c or v the radius pronounced fawn Martin more enjoyable and less tiring. But this is very subjective (pratiqus styles, hand size ...).
    The cutaway -trs nice indeed and gives the mouth the guitare- access to the high notes is very good.
    The Gnrale ergonomics is particulire binds to the weight of the guitar, it's pretty unpleasant.

    SONORITS

    The guitar is archi-rigid: the wooden box is very thick, internal dam is a real structure and it is likely that the drying was not performed correctly t. Consquent by the soundboard is a big board that offers no flexibility. The sound is balanced but unbearable aggressiveness. The varnish adds more to the rear got clean plastic polyester. This is equivalent of Takamine midrange.
    The expression system is particularly ...! An imbalance between the standard filetes strings and those that are not (irrcuprable with qualiser), a patch near a micro rosette 30 euros. The Takamine did much better!

    NOTICE GLOBAL

    A guitar that's definitely not worth the price, all levels.
    We are very very far, from the Enlightenment years, Taylor of 80 and 90 years, is the label that you pay here, not the product.
    Taylor is trying to destroy everything that made its prestige, rolls of electro acoustic.
    Martin, Adamas, Collings Santz Cruz, Lakewood and our luthiers are very very much better prices.

    UTILIZATION

    Easy to play for me handle. I am especially electric and I have small hands but still muscular for the left (I'm right handed).
    It is perfect. Rather flat handle and not too late to leave room for the fingers. Access to acute fairly easy.
    Setting the correct factory. For now, I have changed nothing.
    Action quite low and can be further lowered.
    Elixir 12-53 I dropped a semitone, as long as my hand gets used to the pressure of the strings without nab tendonitis. And it sounds serious!
    I just tightened somewhat mechanical because I found it désaccordait too fast when I triturais too. Since nickel.

    I just tightened somewhat mechanical because I found it désaccordait too fast when I triturais too. Since nickel.

    SOUNDS

    The acoustic sound is TOP. I play strumming, picking or flat picking. In strumming and flat picking, this is a killer. The projection is huge compared to his little sisters 312, 314, 324. Yes it sounds very bright (the Elixir strings are also something) but the bass is very present and accurate. In short, a treat. You can type in, abuse bass, treble bender, she says.
    324 has a warmer sound, but I found it less beautiful.
    I just used the Electro party. Just did a test of 2 hours with light chorus and reverb via Guitar Rig 5 are sent in a PA system. RAS but nothing to do with a Takamine preamp, for example, which is made to play electro. I think the good walkthrough is to mix the raw sound dubbed by a microphone with the sound of the preamp decorated two or three discrete effects.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had a month and I'm on whenever I have a moment with me. I spent a lot of time in the store (thank you Pierre Azema home for your patience) to test different models: MARTIN D18, D28 MARTIN MARTIN D35, D45 GIBSON GIBSON J200; Taylor 214,312,324,314 and 414. The sound of the Martin D28, warmer, but I liked a lot trouble with the handle. Ditto for Gibson, his very distinctive and handle for lumberjack. Each time I returned to the Taylor 414. After I must admit that the 324 has me more in terms of sound and heat.
    But look, the projection, quality solid wood and good quality / price made the difference.

    Once connected ... Even my accordionist who knows guitars like me bombardon was bleufé!
    So I do not know! You're just t ^ be a bad fall on guitar or on the head.
    I also have an old taylor ... Sounds ... yeah ... but there is nothing to scream about the manure pile!
    Me it makes me laugh when I see people prostrate themselves before an old piece of wood without age. Most of the time, it sounds "fiddle" and besides, it is scratched!
    Try an old gibson 50 ... there are some who do not Vallent pet wolf! Just a matter of dam X. .. or not ...
    The handle of the taylor, go great! Now, there's perhaps habit.

    The ergonomics is particularly related to the weight of the guitar is quite unpleasant.

    The guitar is archi-rigid timber body is very thick, the internal bracing is a real structure and it is likely that drying was not done correctly. Therefore the soundboard is a big board that offers no flexibility. The sound is balanced but aggressive unbearable. The varnish adds more the aftertaste clean plastic polyester. This is equivalent to the Takamine midrange.
    The expression system is particularly ...! A huge imbalance between the strings threaded and which are not (irrecoverable equalize with) a stamp near a microphone rose to 30 euros. Takamine there is much better!

    OVERALL OPINION

    A guitar that really is not worth the price at all levels.
    It is very far away, light years, the Taylor 80 and 90 years, this is the label that we pay here and not the product.
    Taylor is destroying everything that made its prestige, the rolls of electro acoustics.

    Taylor 414CE

    Taylor 414cePublished on 03/26/04 at 15:00
    I tried the Taylor 314,414, 514, 612, 814, Martins and Gibsons but ended up taking the 414CE home.

    At one store, the Martins I tried were hard to tune. At another store, they were all perfect intonation. I concluded the first store had the Martins out on display for a long time and they probably had been too dry.

    The Gibsons just didn't cut it. I was in the market to replace a vintage J series Mahogany Gibson that had finally separated along the neck and body joint. NO support from Gibson of any type.

    I added an Ovation to my collection along the way and absolutely love it's perfect intonation. It's my work horse. Outside and in, it can take it. However, I missed the low…

    I tried the Taylor 314,414, 514, 612, 814, Martins and Gibsons but ended up taking the 414CE home.

    At one store, the Martins I tried were hard to tune. At another store, they were all perfect intonation. I concluded the first store had the Martins out on display for a long time and they probably had been too dry.

    The Gibsons just didn't cut it. I was in the market to replace a vintage J series Mahogany Gibson that had finally separated along the neck and body joint. NO support from Gibson of any type.

    I added an Ovation to my collection along the way and absolutely love it's perfect intonation. It's my work horse. Outside and in, it can take it. However, I missed the lows and mids of the Mahogany Gibson.

    I came across the Taylor line thanks to a friend. At first, I fell for the 514 with the Cedar top. Smooth mids and lows but ultimately too flat even with new strings. Great looker though.

    I found the 314 a bit too brite in the mids and highs. Ultimately, I ended up switching between the 414 and the 814. For ~$600 more, I could get into the nice rosewood look. The 814 had slightly better smoothness in the lows and mids but it required a good ear to hear the difference. Then I noticed the 814 had a flat top and back. I then noticed the sharpness of the frets as I ran up and down the neck. The guitar had dried out in the store, even in a humidifed room! I picked up a beautiful 610, and found the same thing! I left depressed.

    A week or two later, I returned to the store and they had just received a 414 ce straight from Taylor. I was still in the case. Mine were the second hands to touch it after the clerk at the store set it up. After playing it a bit, confirming the perfect intonation, balanced bass and mids, I took it home comfortable knowing that it hadn't had a chance to dry out hanging around the store.

    I picked up a digital humidity meter and a humidifier and added them both to the case immediately. I've been keeping the guitar at around 47% humidity which are the same conditions at the Taylor factory. As your retailer to let you read the information that comes along with the Taylor guitars discussing dry and wet guitars. It will help you pick out the jewel.

    The 414 CE seemed to be the best value based upon price, balanced bass, mids and highs and perfect intonation. It was also brand new and just 2 days at the retailer. Tremendous action. Good for finger picking and strumming. The expression system is great on any of the Taylors.

    I also like the neck spacing at the nut. The Ovation has a narrower neck that is easy to play, but notes have to be hit perfectly if you have big fingers. The Taylor neck is wide enough to minimize this but it makes it hard to jump back and forth from the Ovation to the Taylor.

    Taylor could have added a gloss finish to the sides and back though ultimately, I may end up liking the semigloss better as it doesn't show the wear as much.

    The wider neck is great, but one downside is that it is harder to thumb notes up and down the E string.

    I've been over the 414CE from top to bottom and front to back. Everything fits perfectly. An expensive guitar but really well built. I won't go in to all of the construction details as you can get this off of the Taylor website. The construction on all of the Taylors and Martins were top notch. I found the biggest quality problem being the result of how the guitars were stored at the store. Most seemed too dry.

    It is very hard to go wrong with the 414. The Ovangkol sides and backs were as highly figured as the top of the line Taylor rosewoods with only a slight difference in tone. Of course the 414 doesn't have the beautiful inlays and bindings. Had the 814 been in better condition, I may have picked it up, but I am very pleased with the 414. Be sure to check the condition of ANY guitar you chose before you bring it home. This must be really tough for the retailers because they want to display the guitars, but the guitars don't like it.

    Taylor 414 CE

    Taylor 414cePublished on 03/18/02 at 15:00
    I bought the 414ce guitar from Sounds Great Music, near Manchester England. I'm left handed and had gone there to look at an old, second-hand Antoria guitar to knock around on (priced at £199.00 by the way). Anyway I went into the high-end guitar room and there was this left-handed, Taylor 414ce. I'd never had my hands on a quality accoustic before as nobody seems to ever stock them. This was a big mistake! I fell in love with the sound, the feel and the sheer quality. I had to ask the price and it was £1389.00 ... gulp!

This was a big mistake! I fell in love with the sound, the feel and the sheer quality. I had to ask the price and it was £1389.00 ... gulp! I left the shop without the guitar and continued looking around other shops. Nothing came close and a week later I went back to the shop and bought the Taylor. (After all it was only a mortgage more than the Antoria I'd originally planned on).

    As stated above, the guitar was and is, the best accoustic I've ever played. It just sings. I have copy of one of the Taylor CD's and it sounds just the same as those guitars on the CD. It's an absolute pleasure to play, it's easy, tuneful and the tone is outstanding. My old accoustic sounds dead besides the Taylor. Sounds Great Music put a warning in their ad's which goes something like "Don't pick up a Taylor guitar unless you want to buy one .. because you will". I know what they mean. To jump from a price point of £199.00 going into the shop, to buying a guitar at nearly £1400.00 gives you some idea of the pulling power of a Taylor. And I don't care, it's worth every penny and more importantly, it's a guitar for life I feel.

    I have to say I don't like the look of the "New Technology" joint at the Head-stock. Having said that it is perfectly matched and is just a minor niggle really. Other than that, I can find nothing else to dislike.

    Simply superb. Beautiful woods, good electronics, great neck and a very shapely body. (Venetian cut-away)

    This is the first really good guitar that I have owned (I'm only a guitar hobyist not a performer). Being left handed limits choice and often there is premium to pay on top of the standard price. This was not the case with the Taylor. It's possible that had I had the opportunity to pick up a quality left handed one earlier I may have bought it. (a message there retailers!) As it is I am over the moon with my purchase. It's a great instrument to own and have the pleasure of playing.

    Thanks Taylor and thanks to Sounds Great Music for having the guts to stock lefties.

    UTILIZATION

    This guitar is very easy to play, I spend four hours in folk ball to play it and it is no question of me tearing my fingers!
    Highs are very accessible.

    SOUNDS

    The sound is perfect for me.
    In, sound is very round, with very low and this projection significantly stronger than my old C312ce which has a smaller body.
    Connected, it does not sound "plastic" or "piezo" is almost as good a sound recording with a microphone. I need to experiment mixing but I think we can come up with something good.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I played on Ovation for 20 years in dance, I am now an addict Taylor models. The 312ce is brilliantly compact and smooth, the 414ce is her big sister, stronger and powerful.

    Which is a shame it is to pay € 2100 something that costs $ 1900 U.S..

    One of the best

    Taylor 414cePublished on 02/14/12 at 14:22
    Taylor guitars has been one of the best sounding acoustic guitar manufacturers in the industry. Many of their guitars range with different wood types and combinations but they still carry that same distinct Taylor tone. This is the Taylor 414 CE model that is one of the lower entry points for the Taylor model guitars. Although it is an entry point for this manufacturer is still a pretty expensive instrument in general.

    This guitar features the Fischman pickup system which is a fairly good pickup system for running into a sound system or a recording session. He doesn't have a whole lot of features other than it is a standard Taylor style acoustic guitar.

    SOUNDS

    I've played basically every single Taylor in existence and I have to say for the money it doesn't get any better than this model. This is a guitar that at the price point it gives you all the features intoned that you need to sound fantastic acoustic guitar. You can play this acoustically or through the pickup system running into a DI box for life settings as well and each setting sounds fantastic. This is the best Taylor for the money in my opinion.

    OVERALL OPINION

    At new you can find guitars for right at about $1900. That's a pretty good price for this guitar and you can certainly them into you lowering the price in many instances. I actually bought mine for right around $1300 or $1400 new about 10 years ago so you can wiggle the price down a little bit. This is a great guitar and I love the sound and look and for the money of a Taylor this is the best.

Pte wood and glue Araldite de rigueur for the remaining fragments of the pellet. Visually and if we do not say, we barely notice, and tactile feel we do more, but for a guitar of this price, it is a bit of. Also had nine tui a "chemical fingerprint fragrant" extremely dsagrable (type Acton), and I had to leave it open in the open long enough for it to come back an acceptable level. Now the guitar gives the fragrance its holster, and when you open it typ strong enough, but plutt enjoyable. Because of these two points ngatifs and saw the cot of the instrument, I note hard. Guitar Book with CD, which boasts the MRIT expression Systm (Superfluous) and notices that are rglages INTERESTED, and cl rglage SPECIFICATIONS Taylor. (No cable SPECIFICATIONS as seen in the following opinion)

    UTILIZATION

    Channel trs enjoyable. I rgl with a low trs action and yet do not rope frieze.
    CHAC is done without the acute problem, with the same remarks as for the 312ce.
    The weight of the instrument is important, and the volume of the instrument: Use almost mandatory when sitting for me as of small size.
    It is even more obvious when you carry the guitar in his long tui ... The little fingers are murder, whether to play next!
    In electro when I russi run the guitar and the amp on a Roland AC60 cable floating mass, silent sound stunning natural. Unfortunately, probably due to the amp, it works flawlessly or not at all ... Fortunately the use of a standard guitar cable rtable things but the sound is less impressive.
    The feedback does not easily guitar, because of the rigid body trs.
    It is remarkable the agreement, which changes often and I open tuning, I find that whatever the fawn which it is granted, it remains perfectly and given over several days.

    SOUNDS

    This guitar allows me to vary my sound. Clearly, less sweet than my other guitars, and it is trsdtaill prcis, and carries away.
    The prampli is flexible enough, especially with a cable balance.
    I do not feel ls to find only the simple rglages bass, treble, volume. There are indoor switches the expression Systm, which activate or not the sensors DIFFERENT. The standard config (all active) suits me well.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it now for 3 years. The quality of his Systm amplifier that I use this plutt Reserved (Otherwise, I play on Taylor 312CE plutt right now for all-comers). What I find most ESG is the weight (or Guitar Guitar + tui), and the volume of the box, which allows me to poorer visibility of the key. If the store had one when I DCID o I think I bent down to the 412 that is smaller and more lgre, while keeping his chiseled. That is still my IDE.
    Unlike the Furch for example, it took me a PERIOD adaptation to love this guitar. Now, it's not my guitar prfre, but I feel good with.
    Robustness suggests that it will have a long life with no problem.
    If someone is not gn by the volume of the box - small jigs - I recommend the instrument.

    Added 2011/04/08: It's not my guitar prfre which has become a ... Taylor 312 that because of its size and weight. I am a little Reserved rflexion, but I think me spare.

    UTILIZATION

    The handle is enjoyable trs (bne button) and allows an optimal jouabilit throughout the race. The TRS fund is fine I think, allowing the guitar to accommodate easily between the body and arms. Note also a "belt clip" instead of smart fawn just below the joint of the neck and body ... It is rather lgre, and the sound is pretty standard: p (String SERIES Elixir, which even amliore thing ^ ^)

    SOUNDS

    This is a very versatile guitar. Personally I use it in a register rather rock, blues, Varita. I play with a Marshall acoustic amp 50 watts (see my profile).

    Unplug the sound is superb, really saying anything, equilibrated rich and powerful…

    Drbanch sound is wonderful, except that Russia must rgler the guitar / the amps etc not to get a sort of "hum" trspnible, we must admit ... That said, once surmounted this problem, the system is really wonderful phrase ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I play with this guitar for about 6 months now and I must say that I love every respect. The term system is somewhat capricious, but when we arrived on a properly rgler poses no problem for a sound EXTRA. I will add a small note on this subject, I think the sound is better when using the jack "jack-xlr" provided by Taylor in the tui ...

    I recommend this guitar all those like me who want a good rev for Electroacoustic scne as the studio without spending a Gibson J-200, Martin Humingbird or a high-end ...
