Tropical sonic goodness - at your disposal
Constructed with all solid-woods, the Taylor 324ce projects a superior tone that will only get better with age. A solid Tropical mahogany top produces clarity and focus with strong fundamentals. Its solid Tropical mahogany top also delivers a warm, full, rich, and punchy character, perfect for roots music and old school blues. Additionally, the stunning solid top is accompanied by Tasmanian blackwood back and sides which also provides a truly striking visual appeal as well as projecting a unique and sonically-pleasing tone. Furthermore, Tasmanian blackwood's tone closely resembles koa or mahogany within the mid-range, whilst its top-end shimmers beautifully and provides the player with the richness found in rosewood instruments.
V-Class, a whole new level of charming tone
Revolutionary sound from its very core - V-Class is here. And it's everything you've been looking for. Only featured on select models from Taylor. Classed as the 'new sonic-engine', this is construction you won't look back from. Because, as you know, bracing an instrument is extremely important. And, with Taylor - it's meticulous. A revolutionary pattern, designed by Andy Powers.
Designed to bring out the best of your instrument's true nature. This sought-after V-Class bracing enhances and dramatically improves the 324ce's sonic performance. It also prevents the instrument from collapsing under string tension. It's time to experience superior volume, sustain, and intonation. Plus, with V-Class bracing, notes are more in-tune with each other. Bringing you a truly beautiful sound that simply can't be replicated. So, in any position up and down the fingerboard, every note is true, full, consistent. And in complete harmony with one another.
