Taylor Empire Select 714ce Rosewood AA/Lutz Spruce, Maple Binding #03048 (Open Box)

Taylor Empire Select 714ce Rosewood AA/Lutz Spruce, Ebony Fingerboard, Natural

What are “Open Box” models?

These are instruments that have been opened and/or repackaged or have been returned. In most cases, they are in Like New condition showing very little wear if any. Any significant marks will be mentioned in the description. All “Open Box” models receive a full factory setup and hand-inspection before shipping.

This Taylor Empire Select 714ce combines the power and character of Lutz Spruce with the warmth and bottom-end that East Indian Rosewood is known for.

Lutz Spruce tops are a natural combination of Sitka Spruce and Engelmann Spruce.  Like old-growth Adirondack spruce, Lutz offers a powerful response with the added elements of Engelmann Spruce.

AA Rosewood is the straightest and highest quality Rosewood.  As a back and sides, it offers some of the most classic tones in modern music history.  Players will immediately notice the big bottom-end, sparkling top end and scooped mids.  The complex overtones add to the demand and mystique of Rosewood.  Singer/songwriters tend to love rosewood back and sides due to the scooped mids–allowing their voice to naturally fill this space.

We love this tonewood combination for players who demand a classic tone with tons of character, overhead and bottom-end!

The Grand Auditorium Body shape is Taylor’s foremost design and allows for all styles of play and is super comfortable!  Matched with a cutaway and Taylor ES2 Electronics package, this design is made for home, stage and studio. As an additional upgrade, this guitar is equipped with Taylor Sense which allows players to track their instrument’s humidity and much more.

Note: After close inspection, this instrument has a very small dimple on the back, near the edge. (See Pics)
