With a silent satin finish, tobacco sunburst look and ergonomic contours, the 324ce is a modern masterpiece. With Revolutionary V-Class Bracing for Enhanced Volume and Intonation Taylor's patented V-Class bracing represents a major advancement in acoustic guitar design. This innovative bracing pattern optimizes your 324ce's response and musicality. Notes ring out with impressive volume and clarity across the entire tonal range. Sustain is heightened for more resonance and expression. V-Class bracing also brings the 324ce's intonation into greater alignment up and down the neck. Chords sound fuller and more harmonious. Tuning stability improves too, thanks to the guitar's optimized string vibration. With a Mahogany and Urban Ash Body for Versatile Acoustic Tone The 324ce pairs a solid tropical mahogany top with back and sides of urban ash sourced from trees grown in Southern California. This premium wood combo yields a focused yet versatile acoustic voice that readily responds to both gentle and aggressive playing styles. The mahogany top provides organic compression to smooth out your tone. The urban ash contributes articulate note separation and ample projection. Together they create a dynamic tonal palette equally suited to fingerstyle nuance and energetic strumming. With Taylor's ES2 Pickup System for Lifelike Amplified Sound Plug in the 324ce and Taylor's revolutionary Expression System 2 pickup authentically conveys your guitar's natural acoustic tone. This groundbreaking design places three adjustable sensors along the saddle. As a result, the ES2 captures a broader dynamic range versus under-saddle pickups. The location also allows the saddle to fully contact the bridge for optimal acoustic resonance when unplugged. Paired with Taylor's studio-grade preamp, the ES2 pickup translates all the richness of your playing through an amplifier or PA. With Premium Touches for Optimal Playability and Aesthetics The Builder's Edition 324ce incorporates ergonomic refinements to maximize playing comfort. Thoughtfully beveled armrest and body edges enable smooth strumming access. The contoured neck heel eases upper-fret access. Gotoh tuners provide precise tuning control. Visually, the 324ce makes a statement with its shaded edgeburst finish, ivoroid binding and ebony appointments. The Silent Satin finish allows the mahogany and ash to resonate freely.
