Taylor Next Generation Builder’s Edition 324ce

Tobacco Kona Burst

The Taylor Next Generation Builder’s Edition 324ce represents the most refined evolution of Taylor’s Grand Auditorium design, blending premium tonewoods, cutting-edge construction, and player-focused comfort features into a deeply expressive acoustic-electric guitar.

This model pairs a solid mahogany top with solid sapele back and sides, producing a warm, focused voice with natural compression, strong midrange presence, and exceptional clarity. Taylor’s scalloped V-Class bracing enhances low-end warmth and sustain while maintaining balance and pitch accuracy across the fretboard. The result is a rich, articulate tone that excels in both fingerstyle and dynamic strumming.

As part of Taylor’s Next Generation lineup, the Builder’s Edition 324ce features the Action Control Neck, allowing fast, precise action adjustments without removing the neck or strings—ideal for players who demand consistency across changing environments. Amplified performance is handled by Taylor’s Claria System electronics, delivering natural, stage-ready tone with intuitive soundhole-mounted controls.

Designed for maximum comfort, this Builder’s Edition includes chamfered body edges, a beveled armrest, a beveled cutaway, and Taylor’s Curve Wing bridge, making long sessions effortless and inspiring. The striking Tobacco Kona Burst finish highlights the mahogany’s grain and gives the guitar a bold, vintage-inspired aesthetic.
