Guitar Center | Taylor Guitars 50th Anniversary & Circa 74 Amplifier | New from NAMM 2024 @guitarcenter | Uploaded January 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Taylor Guitars shimmers into its Golden Anniversary this year, and the guitar builders are marking the occasion with a number of releases throughout 2024.
“There will be a lot of products coming out this year,” says Taylor CEO and Master Guitar Designer Andy Powers, “because our 50th is an ongoing celebration for us.”
The party has started with quite a bang, as Taylor unveiled its woody, mid-century modern-looking marvel, the Circa 74 Acoustic Guitar and Vocal Amplifier. “We wanted something that doesn’t look like an appliance,” says Powers. “Instead, it looks comfortable sitting in my living room, and I love to look at things that are beautiful.”
In addition, Taylor kicked off 2024 with a trio of exquisite Grand Auditorium guitars—the 314ce, 814ce Builders Edition and AD14ce. Each guitar is equipped with V-Class bracing and ES2 electronics.
“With the AD14ce, the American Dream Series has a Grand Auditorium model for the first time, and it also has a cutaway for the first time,” says Powers. “The AD14ce is a personal favorite. It’s a lot of guitar for what it costs.”
