Taylor Builder’s Edition K24CE
Crafted to deliver the ultimate playing experience, the Builder’s Edition K24ce blends a refined, ergonomic playing experience with premium tonewoods and a textured, vibrant acoustic sound. Solid Hawaiian koa forms the back, sides and top of this Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric, generating a bold, articulate midrange with splashy refined trebles and warmth in the low end. Koa is also famous for its aging properties, and will open up over time and play with greater depth and sweetness. V-Class bracing enhances the response with greater volume and longer sustain. A bevy of comfort features includes an armrest, beveled cutaway, and chamfered body and fretboard edges, and the Silent Satin finish helps reduce incidental noise for recording situations.
