Taylor NOS 814ce Builder’s Edition
Honduran Rosewood / Adirondack Spruce

Taylor – 800 Series Builder’s Edition Acoustic Electric

The Taylor 814ce Builder’s Edition represents the pinnacle of Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium design, pairing Honduran rosewood back and sides with an Adirondack spruce top for unmatched tonal sophistication. Honduran rosewood delivers warmth, complex overtones, and piano-like clarity, while Adirondack spruce contributes projection, dynamic headroom, and articulate response even under aggressive attack. Together, they create a lush, richly textured voice with blooming sustain and harmonic depth, making this guitar equally inspiring for strumming, fingerstyle, and recording applications. Enhanced by Taylor’s patented V-Class bracing, the 814ce Builder’s Edition offers louder volume, longer sustain, and precise pitch accuracy across the tonal spectrum.

Comfort-focused Builder’s Edition contours include chamfered body edges, a beveled armrest, beveled cutaway, and a smooth Curve Wing bridge, ensuring a relaxed and ergonomic playing experience. Premium appointments include Element fretboard inlays in shell and mother-of-pearl, a rosewood pickguard, Gotoh 510 antique gold tuning machines, and a full-body gloss finish with Kona edgeburst back and sides and a complementary burst treatment for the top. With ES2 electronics for clear, natural amplified tone and a deluxe hardshell case included, the 814ce Builder’s Edition is a refined instrument built to inspire.
