From Taylor:

"Featuring solid mahogany back, sides and top, the Grand Auditorium 324ce serves up a remarkably balanced tone profile in a package that also offers a relaxed, accommodating feel. The slender Taylor neck and comfortable body shape make it easy to get the most of this model's warmth and midrange focus, which also yields a smooth attack thanks to the hardwood top's natural compression effect. Perfect for recording applications but with enough power for live play alongside other musicians, the 324ce is ready for virtually any musical scenario. Visual touches include a satin edgeburst color treatment, a firestripe pickguard and Gemstone inlays in Italian acrylic. And with built-in ES2 electronics and an included hardshell case, you're ready to go wherever your music takes you."
