2026 Taylor Next Generation Builder's Edition K24ce Kona Burst
Replete with distinctive tonewoods, Claria electronics, and Scalloped V-Class bracing, the Next Generation Builder’s Edition K24ce represents the apex of Taylor craftsmanship, elevating the brand’s design philosophy to exciting new heights. It all starts with Scalloped V-Class bracing — a feature originally introduced in Taylor’s Next Generation series that opens up this Grand Auditorium’s low-end response with a deep, rich character. This top-caliber acoustic-electric guitar features all-koa construction, yielding both a rich, warm tone and beautiful, eye-catching aesthetics. Onstage, Taylor’s refined Claria electronics faithfully capture the Next Generation K24ce’s robust acoustic voice with plug-and-play simplicity, supported by soundhole-mounted Volume, Tone, and Mid-Contour controls. Additionally, a neotropical mahogany neck, joined to the body via Taylor’s trailblazing Action Control neck system, and a Crelicam ebony fingerboard ensure effortless playability while also contributing to this K24ce’s world-class tone. Finally, a high-class arrangement of thoughtful touches rounds out the Next Generation K24ce, including a beveled armrest, a beveled cutaway, stunning inlays, and Gotoh 510 antique gold tuners.
