With a legacy of inspiring musicians across every genre, Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium continues to evolve with thoughtful, player-centric refinements. This model pairs Indian rosewood back and sides with a Sitka spruce top, delivering a lush overtone character balanced by crisp highs and a deep, resonant low end. Scalloped V-Class bracing enhances volume, extends sustain, and improves note-to-note balance across the entire fretboard.
Additional upgrades include a radius-style rosewood armrest for enhanced comfort, Taylor’s long-tenon Action Control Neck for exceptional adjustability and resonance, and the new Claria electronics system, featuring discreet soundhole controls and a mid-contour knob for effortless tone shaping when amplified. Finishing touches include Element fretboard inlays, a rosewood pickguard, elegant maple binding, and a full-body gloss finish. The guitar ships in a deluxe hardshell case.
The Taylor 814ce stands as a hallmark in Taylor’s collection, widely acclaimed for good reason. It represents the height of Taylor craftsmanship, combining exceptional build quality, rich tonal character, and sophisticated aesthetics. Built with East Indian rosewood back and sides, a Sitka spruce top, and Taylor’s groundbreaking scalloped V-Class bracing, the 814ce produces a full, resonant tone. Its sound profile features warm, rounded lows, clear, sparkling highs, and a gently scooped midrange that gives space for vocals or other instruments to shine in a mix.
Crafted for adaptability, this Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar performs beautifully across diverse playing techniques—whether it’s expressive fingerpicking, dynamic strumming, or precise flatpicking. With or without amplification via the new Claria pickup system, it delivers remarkable clarity and responsiveness. It also includes a deluxe hardshell case for secure transport and protection, making it a dependable choice for any musical journey.
