It pairs a solid mahogany top with solid sapele back and sides, then adds Taylor's newest design updates: \u003cstrong\u003eScalloped V-Class bracing, the Action Control Neck and Claria electronics\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is a warmer, more responsive take on the familiar 324ce formula, with the focused midrange and natural compression of mahogany plus the clarity and balance of sapele. This example is in mint condition and includes its original Taylor hard case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMahogany Top \u0026amp; Solid Sapele Back and Sides\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe solid mahogany top gives the 324ce a smooth attack, strong fundamental and controlled overtones, while the solid sapele back and sides add definition and a touch of top-end shimmer. It is an excellent combination for players who want a warm acoustic voice that still stays articulate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eScalloped V-Class Bracing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Next Generation update introduces \u003cstrong\u003eScalloped V-Class bracing with Relief Rout\u003c\/strong\u003e.

It is especially strong for singer-songwriters, fingerstyle players, studio work and live performers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOur Take\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Next Generation 324ce is a meaningful update rather than a cosmetic refresh. The Action Control Neck and Claria system make it more practical on stage, while the scalloped V-Class bracing gives the mahogany and sapele combination a little more openness and low-end depth. In mint condition with the original hard case, this is a particularly nice example.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable from \u003cstrong\u003eColemans Music South Melbourne\u003c\/strong\u003e with \u003cstrong\u003eFast Shipping Aus Wide\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TAYLOR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67750811271220,"sku":"210000078774","price":3899.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0573\/5386\/3220\/files\/PRELOVED-TAYLOR-Next-Generation-324ce-1.jpg?v=1792689881","url":"https:\/\/www.colemansmusic.com.au\/products\/preloved-taylor-next-generation-324ce","provider":"Colemans Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
