Fresh from Taylor's stunning Urban Species series, the Urban Red Ironbark Acoustic-electric Guitar 514ce stuns with back and sides made from red ironbark, a color-rich tonewood with similarities ebony and rosewood. This guitar marks the next step in Taylor’s Urban Species line made from sustainably sourced urban forestry that was otherwise destined for removal. This wood delivers rich, clear tone augmented by a powerful torrefied Sitka spruce top and sculpted to perfection by Taylor’s acclaimed Grand Auditorium body shape. Complete with a Florentine cutaway, a bound ebony fingerboard, a comfortable mahogany neck, and gig-ready ES2 electronics, the Urban Red Ironbark 514ce offers innovative modern looks with classic Taylor features and performance.
