Overview

Classical tone meets Taylor playability and advanced electronics.

The Taylor NS24e is Taylor's first non-cutaway nylon-string grand auditorium guitar, honoring the aesthetic of the more traditional classical guitar body. The Taylor NS24e is equipped with a rosewood laminate body, Sitka spruce top, and an ebony fingerboard and bridge. The guitar also includes modern amenities like a sleek, fast 1-7/8" neck, a cypress rosette, chrome-plated tuners, and an ES-T under-saddle pickup.

The grand auditorium is Taylor's most versatile and popular guitar shape, excelling at both light-touch fingerstyle to full-blown strumming. Great for miking and recording, the grand auditorium NS24e guitar's balanced mid-range and bright tone exemplify the Taylor voice.

Taylor's ES-N piezo system offers high-fidelity amplified tone, unprecedented dynamic range, and extraordinary resistance to feedback and distortion. It enables all of the expressive subtleties of your playing to come through, just the way you intended.

Taylor's ultraviolet-cured finish provides the striking appearance, smooth feel, and lasting protection you'd expect to find on one of their guitars. Unlike lacquer finishes, Taylor's UV finish is resistant to cold-checking and is much more environmentally friendly. It's also clearer than lacquer and doesn't turn yellowā€¯so wood grain and natural colorations are more distinct. The Taylor UV finish contains as many solids as thicker finishes, so a thinner application provides the same protection while still allowing the tonewood to breath. Plus, it ages the same way that we like a good lacquer finish to age, allowing the Taylor NX23e Acoustic-Electric Guitar to open up as it's played over the years.
