The newly upgraded Taylor 324ce Grand Auditorium continues to redefine what a mid-range, all-solid-wood acoustic-electric guitar can offer. With its warm neo-tropical mahogany top and sapele back and sides, the 324ce has long been a favorite for players seeking clarity, balance, and tonal richness in a comfortable body shape. Now, the 2026 version brings some significant enhancements, including Scalloped V-Class bracing for deeper resonance and low-end warmth, the new Claria pickup system for superior amplified tone, and the revolutionary Action Control Neck system that lets players tweak their action on the fly — no tools, no neck removal, no fuss.

Sonically, the hardwood mahogany top gives the 324ce a naturally compressed and focused sound, making it ideal for recording and controlled live performance environments. The scalloped V-Class bracing brings additional sustain, dynamic range, and enhanced intonation, while the body’s Grand Auditorium shape delivers projection and articulation that suits fingerstyle, flatpicking, and light strumming equally well. Whether you're tracking in a studio, performing at a gig, or writing at home, the 324ce adapts beautifully to your style and environment.

Aesthetically, the 324ce sports a sophisticated satin Shaded Edgeburst finish, firestripe pickguard, and faux pearl Gemstone inlays for a rustic-yet-refined look. The new Claria pickup system, developed with input from top touring musicians and engineers, ensures your live sound is always clear, warm, and natural. Available now at Haggerty’s Music and paired with a Taylor Deluxe Hardshell Case, the 324ce is a serious tool for serious players who need flexibility, reliability, and tone that holds up in any context.
