Created to celebrate the innovative vision behind Bob Taylor's groundbreaking guitar designs, the Legacy 714ce pays tribute to the Grand Auditorium body shape, which Bob first introduced in 1994. This special model combines a unique tonewood pairing not found in Taylor’s current standard lineup: Indian rosewood for the back and sides, paired with a Western Red cedar top. It is braced with the original X-bracing pattern used in the earliest Grand Auditorium guitars, delivering a warm, mellow tone with exceptional touch sensitivity and balanced treble clarity.
The Legacy 714ce embodies the minimalist elegance that Bob Taylor favored in his early designs. Its aesthetic features include black binding with black-and-white pinstripe accents, green abalone dot fretboard inlays, a matching three-ring rosette, ebony bridge pins with green abalone dots, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, and gold tuning machines. The body has a gloss finish, complemented by a satin-finished neck for smooth playability.
Equipped with LR Baggs Element VTC electronics, the guitar offers superb amplified performance. It comes complete with a deluxe hardshell case, making it a fitting tribute to three decades of Taylor’s guitar-making excellence.
This collection of guitars pays homage to the remarkable legacy of Taylor founders Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, celebrating their significant contributions to the art of guitar-making. Each model in this series reflects Bob Taylor's early influences and showcases his groundbreaking design innovations, capturing the spirit and craftsmanship that have defined Taylor's journey in the world of music.
The Taylor Guitars Legacy Collection commemorates 50 years of groundbreaking musical craftsmanship and innovation. This special series launches with five acoustic models that pay tribute to Taylor's rich heritage. Three of these models are reimagined versions of rosewood/spruce guitars from the iconic 800 Series, which trace their origins to some of Bob Taylor’s earliest creations. The other two models spotlight the Grand Auditorium body style, a signature design that has come to define the modern Taylor sound.
Drawing inspiration from Bob Taylor’s original builds, these retrospective guitars embody the essence of Taylor’s history by blending foundational design principles with key advancements developed over the years. To mark this milestone, the first 100 guitars of each model will include an interior label personally signed by Taylor founders Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, adding a unique touch of authenticity and legacy to these exceptional instruments.
