Always pushing for the next breakthrough in acoustic guitar design, we have Taylor Guitars and their Taylor Guitars Builder's Edition 524ce. This addition to the Taylor Builder's Edition lineup comes together with an array of time-tested Taylor features alongside distinct, new features continuing on in Taylor's traditions of innovation. Across the board for Taylor Guitars fans universally, this Builder's Edition has quite a bit to get excited about.

This Taylor Guitars Builder's Edition model continues forward in Taylor's Builder's tradition of exceptional tonewoods, tonality, and construction. Bringing the best to the forefront for the most discerning of players, this Builder's Edition 524ce is a treat. For starters, with this 524ce, we have a classic Taylor Grand Auditorium that draws inspiration for the Taylor Guitars 50th Anniversary Builder's Edition 314ce. Comfortably designed with body bevels and a cutaway, this body is comfortable and welcoming.

Coming together with a mahogany top and solid Urban Ash back and sides, these tonewoods form the basis for a thrilling musical experience from here until the very end. Urban Ash, a responsibly-sourced wood from Southern California, offers a nice richness and warmth combined with the mahogany's woody voice. Within, the mahogany top is fitted with Taylor's V-Class bracing pattern which focuses the projection and output of the guitar to a concise sum, only strengthening its musicality.

This Builder's Edition 524ce continues on from here with a mahogany neck paired with a Taylor Guitars West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard. Noted for its rich, dark color, this specialized pick of ebony straight from Taylor's very own Cameroonian ebony mill makes for an excellent and now standby addition to this Builder's Edition model. The ebony is lined with Italian acrylic Compass inlays that give off a refined and classy visual impact.

Matching its fine tonewood construction, the Builder's Edition 524ce is punched up with a number of considerations for performance and playability. For one, this Builder's Edition is equipped with premium Gotoh 510 antique chrome tuning machines that make stringing a breeze. These tuners are matched at the guitar's opposite end by a Curve Wing bridge to ground strings stably. These considerations for stringing are accompanied by the addition of Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics system which brings the tones of this Builder's Edition to the stage or studio seamlessly. This whole experience wraps up with a gloss finish and an included Taylor Deluxe hardshell brown case.

As a point of distinction for Taylor acoustic guitars, Builder's Edition models step up for exceptional musical experiences. This Builder's Edition 524ce is no different for players seeking a new echelon of sound and style.
