However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.

The Taylor 114ce-S, with its Grand Auditorium body size, is a versatile and all-purpose acoustic guitar that ensures customer satisfaction with its multifaceted performance. This mid-size model, originally designed by Bob Taylor in 1994, strikes the perfect balance between a Dreadnought and Grand Concert, making it an ideal choice for both pick users and finger pluckers. The shape of the Grand Auditorium creates a full lower register, a present midrange, and sparkling treble strings, producing clear, well-defined notes that are suitable for strumming and fingerstyle playing alike.
Its balanced tonal spectrum allows it to easily blend with other instruments in a studio mix or on stage, making it a favoured choice among singer-songwriters for composition and travel. The Grand Auditorium is our most popular body shape, loved for its ability to cater to a variety of styles, offering a single-guitar solution for many players. If you're seeking an all-purpose guitar that won't let you down, the multi-dimensional Grand Auditorium body size of the Taylor 114ce-S is an excellent choice.
Experience the gold standard of acoustic guitar tonewoods with the Sitka Spruce top on the Taylor 114ce-S Grand Auditorium. Dominating the world of modern guitars, Sitka Spruce is utilized in a staggering 85-90 of Taylor's exceptional creations, and for good reason. Hailing from the crisp, pure wilderness of Canada, this extraordinary timber merges strength with elasticity. The result? A wide-ranging dynamic spectrum, capable of accommodating your wildest musical whims. From the most vigorous strumming and assertive strumming to the most delicate fingerpicking, Sitka spruce handles it all with aplomb.
Imagine crisp articulation that dances off your fingertips, every note ringing true with clarity and resonance. That's the Sitka Spruce promise. Its versatile nature makes it a perfect match for all styles of guitars and players. Whether you're a blues enthusiast or a country strummer, the Taylor 114ce-S Grand Auditorium with its Sitka Spruce top will amplify your unique voice.
And if you're wondering about the quality of this timber, consider this: Sitka spruce is Bob Taylor’s personal favourite for an all-around great guitar. When the maestro himself endorses it, you know you're getting something truly special.
Get professional quality with ES2 electronics. This special design features an innovative behind-the-saddle construction that picks up the 114ce-S Grand Auditorium's natural dynamic properties. And delivers them beautifully. This is thanks to the Expression System 2 which features three pickup sensors. The location of these sensors enables more acoustic dynamics to be captured - resulting in an exceptional amplified tone, and a superior response to each nuance of your individual style.
A breakthrough design. And it's here to take your live performance to the next level. The Expression System 2 combined with Taylor's 'professional audio' preamp allows you to simply plug into an amplifier, PA system, or directly into recording software. This system faithfully captures the 114ce-S Grand Auditorium's natural dynamics and sparkle. You can also tweak your tone by playing around with a trio of soft-touch rotary buttons. Making it easy to find your signature sound, and develop your true persona. High-fidelity in every way, this is professional quality in a more affordable Taylor package.
The Taylor Taylor 114ce-S Grand Auditorium employs a Venetian cutaway, renowned for its soft, rounded lines that contribute to both the aesthetic and functional value of the guitar. This distinct curvature of the cutaway presents a varying slope that is influenced by the shape of the guitar body. This Venetian cutaway design doesn't merely add to the visual charm of the guitar; it significantly boosts playability by providing easier access to the upper frets, thereby enabling players to navigate a wider range of notes. Furthermore, the softer lines of the cutaway enhance the comfort factor, making the guitar a pleasure to hold and play.
