Grand Auditorium Body Shape–Versatile and Balanced

The PS54ce features Taylor's renowned Grand Auditorium body shape, a versatile design that delivers a balanced and articulate tone with ample volume. This body style is ideal for a wide range of playing styles and musical genres, from delicate fingerpicking to powerful strumming. The Grand Auditorium shape is known for its responsiveness and clarity, making it a popular choice for both solo performers and ensemble players.

 

Premium Tonewoods–A Symphony of Sound

This 12-string acoustic-electric guitar is crafted with a solid Adirondack spruce top, a premium tonewood known for its powerful, punchy sound with great headroom and clarity. The Adirondack spruce delivers a broader dynamic range compared to standard Sitka spruce, offering a combination of warmth and crispness. The solid Honduran rosewood back and sides complement the Adirondack spruce top, contributing deep, resonant bass frequencies, a smooth midrange, and a sparkling treble that enhances overall clarity and articulation.

V-Class Bracing–Enhanced Resonance and Projection

The PS54ce features Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing, a revolutionary design that enhances the guitar's volume, sustain, and projection while preserving its clarity and articulation. This bracing pattern allows the top to vibrate more freely and efficiently, resulting in a richer and more resonant tone that's perfect for both fingerstyle playing and strumming.

 

Taylor Expression System 2 Electronics–A Natural Amplified Voice

This grand auditorium acoustic-electric guitar is equipped with Taylor's Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics, a revolutionary pickup design that delivers exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness. The ES2 system features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors that capture the nuances of your playing with exceptional clarity and detail. Whether you're performing on stage or recording in the studio, the PS54ce delivers a natural and expressive amplified tone.

 

Premium Appointments–Elegance in Every Detail

The PS54ce is adorned with premium appointments that enhance its aesthetic appeal and contribute to its exceptional tone. The genuine West African ebony fingerboard and bridge provide a smooth and responsive playing surface, while the black Tusq nut and white Micarta saddle ensure optimal intonation and sustain. The guitar's gloss finish with shaded edgeburst back and sides highlights the beauty of the Honduran rosewood, while the Gotoh 510 Antique Gold tuners add a touch of elegance. The Paua California Vine inlay suite and ebony radius armrest further enhance the guitar's luxurious aesthetic.
