With a blend of rich tone, playing comfort, and all-round musical appeal, the 814ce has long been considered the flagship model of Taylor acoustic-electric guitars. Introducing the next evolution of a classic model: the Builder's Edition 814ce. Keeping familiar specifications, such as the solid Indian Rosewood back and sides, paired with a 4-piece Adirondack Spruce top results in an endearing mix of warm lows, clear and articulate highs and astonishing power. The V-Class bracing enhances the bloom of overtones and lush sustain that players adore. With a handful of enhancements focused on playing comfort, like a beveled armrest and cutaway, and a subtle body taper take the relaxed and accommodating performance of the Grand Auditorium body to a new level, while the stunning gloss finish and Kona burst back and sides give this model a striking visual edge. Whether you're looking for an all-round workhorse guitar, or an instrument with all the class and sophistication of an heirloom to add to your collection, the Builder's Edition 814ce is potentially the most Taylor Taylor guitar ever built. Grand Auditorium - The iconic Taylor signature shape that encapsulates the quintessential all-purpose acoustic guitar. Indian Rosewood - Popular, classic, and tonally flexible, Indian Rosewood is a tonewood superstar that Bob Taylor recognizes as one of the greatest ever. Adirondack Spruce - Maintaining outstanding clarity with an aggressive attack, Adirondack Spruce provides a high volume ceiling and dynamic, lively performance. Expression System® 2 - The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic characteristics utilizing a cutting-edge behind-the-saddle design. Beveled Cutaway - Providing a comfortable feel for guitarists who use the entire length of the neck, the beveled cutaway construction features a compound design with a smooth edge along the corner of the body between the end of the cutaway and the neck heel, achieving a superior feel for the fretting hand. V-Class Bracing - Taylor's patented V-Class bracing is a groundbreaking new pattern that results in a new sonic engine. Marking a major shift away from classic steel-string bracing patterns.
