Just picked up a 2012 314ce in beautiful condition. Great way to start off a cold, snowy Saturday!

I don’t play my 314ce the most, but it always pleases when I do play it, such a great guitar. Congrats on finding a great “old” guitar.

Congrats!  My 314ce has definitely gotten better with age.  It has "opened up" and sounds a lot more woody and less trebly/jangly than when I first got it.  I can't recommend a Bob Colosi Saddle for it enough.  Hard to believe it would make much difference, but it does!

How about a MacNichols unbleached bone saddle! I was fortunate enough to win won in their contest! Can't wait to try it out on this baby!
