Unique tonewoods

The walnut tonewoods selected for the 124ce Special Edition’s top, back, and sides offer world-class projection, rugged durability, and beautiful curb appeal. A solid walnut top strengthens strums and plucks with a powerful midrange definition that’s assertive but never intrusive or woody — think of it as a supportive tonewood, but not one that sounds timid or lackluster by any means Layered walnut back and sides not only aid in this guitar’s balanced tone but also makes the 124ce more road-ready by increasing its stability when climate fluctuations and rough handling are unavoidable. This guitar’s hard-rock maple neck. It has a premium feel and is topped with a (sustainably sourced) Crelicam ebony fingerboard that’s glassy and smooth.

Grand Auditorium body style

Taylor's beloved Grand Auditorium body style, featured on the 124ce SE, employs the width and depth of the dreadnought. But its narrower waist gives Grand Auditorium-bodied acoustic guitars a sleeker look with remarkable high-end response — helping to sharpen the definition of each note. And the comfort of this body style is a huge reason the 124ce SE is a popular instrument for live performance. From fingerpicking to strumming, the 124ce Special-edition Grand Auditorium is an excellent choice for nearly every playing style.

Taylor's Expression System 2

Taylor's Expression System 2 uses a proprietary pickup behind the saddle. The pickup's three individually calibrated, precisely positioned piezo-electric sensors respond organically to the instrument's acoustic energy as it's transferred through the saddle. In concert with Taylor's custom-designed preamp, the result is a natural acoustic sound with incredible dynamic range and responsiveness.
