Overview

Blending warm, lively acoustic character with signature Taylor playability, the 24ce brings our full-size, full-scale cutaway Grand Auditorium experience to an accessible entry-level price point. A solid mahogany top delivers a warm, dry tonal profile with a strong focus on the midrange—perfect for players who enjoy a rootsy, earthy sound. Featuring layered sapele back and sides, the 24ce’s tonal balance makes it a dependable choice for strummers and fingerstyle players alike. Inside, Taylor's unique voicing architecture bolsters the overall volume and sustain, with greater harmonic agreement between notes along the entire ebony fretboard. A slim, heelless maple neck delivers the smooth, familiar feel Taylor players expect. Visually, the 24ce keeps things simple yet stylish with subtle 4mm dot inlays, a single-ring black rosette, chrome tuners and a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard. This model includes onboard Fishman Sonitone GT-2 electronics and ships in a gig bag so you can easily plug in and play wherever your music takes you.
