Taylor Builder's Edition K24ce Next Generation

Completely revamped for 2026: the Taylor Builder's Edition K24ce Next Generation!

Designed for an optimal playing experience, the Next Generation Builder's Edition K24ce combines premium tonewoods with innovative construction details that enhance tone, playing comfort, and performance. Solid, beautifully figured Hawaiian koa is used for the top, back, and sides of this Grand Auditorium model. This yields a powerful, defined midrange, complemented by sparkling, refined highs.

Scalloped V-Class bracing delivers warmer lows and more powerful projection while maintaining the sustain and tonal purity of Taylor's original V-Class construction. Moreover, koa develops an increasingly rich, warm tone over time and with frequent play.

Playing comfort is further enhanced by an armrest, a beveled cutaway, and rounded edges along the body and fretboard. Refined paua details—including a single-ring rosette, Spring Vine inlays, and decorative body purfling—give the guitar an exclusive look. A high-gloss finish and a hand-applied Kona Burst complete the package.
Additionally, this Next Generation Builder's Edition K24ce features the Action Control Neck system, allowing for extremely precise and stable neck adjustments. This ensures comfortable playability and consistent action.

Also new is the superb-sounding Claria electronics system. This system delivers a remarkably natural and dynamic amplified sound, with controls that are no longer visible on the body but are instead subtly integrated into the soundbox for a sleeker, more elegant appearance. In this way, the Builder's Edition combines the natural beauty and tonal qualities of Hawaiian koa with a modern design focused on playing comfort, expression, and versatility.

This guitar has been carefully inspected for condition and playability, then set up to our Gold Standard by a luthier. We make sure it arrives in your hands exactly as it should: sounding its best, playing effortlessly and ready to be enjoyed from the very first note.
