Built to deliver unmatched playability, this gloss-finished Grand Auditorium features a beveled armrest, chamfered edges, a contoured cutaway and a Curve Wing bridge. Its solid mahogany top lends warmth, midrange emphasis and natural compression, while solid Shamel ash back and sides—responsibly sourced from municipalities in Southern California—add a warm, woody voice with a focus on fundamental notes and balanced overtones. Our patented V-Class bracing pattern dials up extra volume and sustain while improving intonation up and down the fretboard. Its Kona Burst and gloss finish present a dusky, alluring aesthetic, complemented by a firestripe pickguard, an Italian acrylic rosette and our Compass inlay motif. Outfitted with Gotoh 510 antique chrome tuners and ES2 electronics, the Builder’s Edition 524ce is a great choice for players seeking rich, balanced sound in a guitar that feels as good as it looks. For reliable protection in any situation, it ships in a deluxe hardshell case.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eBody\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e OM\/Auditorium\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grand Auditorium\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCutaway:\u003c\/strong\u003e Venetian\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBracing Pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e V-Class\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Shamel Ash\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFinish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gloss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Kona Burst\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Chamfered Edges w\/ Purfling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosette:\u003c\/strong\u003e Faux Pearl Single Ring\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eNeck\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape:\u003c\/strong\u003e Standard Carve\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e .840\" at the 1st fret, .870\" at the 9th fret\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJoint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bolt-on\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock:\u003c\/strong\u003e West African Crelicam Ebony Veneer, Faux Pearl Compass Inlay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e Faux Pearl Compass\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRadius:\u003c\/strong\u003e 15\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25-1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut Width:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1-3\/4\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut Material:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Tusq\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eHardware\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge\/Tailpiece:\u003c\/strong\u003e West African Crelicam Ebony Bridge, White Micarta Saddle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gotoh 510\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHardware Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Antique Chrome\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Firestripe\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eElectronics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePreamp:\u003c\/strong\u003e Expression System 2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eControls:\u003c\/strong\u003e Volume, Treble, Bass\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eOther\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase\/Gigbag:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Hardshell\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor Guitars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48258488402168,"sku":null,"price":3499.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0404\/6032\/0934\/files\/TaylorBuilder_sEdition524ce1202176078-2.jpg?v=1776619332","url":"https:\/\/briansguitars.com\/products\/taylor-builders-edition-524ce-kona-burst","provider":"Brian's Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
