Every curve and angle has been carefully considered to remove any impediments between you and the music. V-Class Bracing Unlocks the Guitar's Full Potential At the heart of the Taylor 814ce is their advanced V-Class bracing. This engineering innovation boosts volume and sustain compared to other bracing patterns. Notes ring out with enhanced clarity across all six strings. Intonation accuracy is also improved, making tuning fast and frustration-free. Both on stage and in studio, the 814ce BE projects with the power and richness that Taylor guitars are revered for. Even when playing complex chords up the neck, individual notes come through with precision. Premium Adirondack Spruce and Indian Rosewood Create a Vintage Acoustic Voice The 814ce BE pairs two of the most prized acoustic tonewoods: Adirondack spruce and Indian rosewood. The multi-piece spruce top offers incredible resonance and articulation. Combined with rosewood's complex overtones and strong low end, this guitar boasts exceptional tonal depth from the very first strum. Notes bloom with richness and character that only improves over time. Whether fingerpicking or strumming full chords, the 814ce rewards you with incredible dynamics and nuance. Its vintage-inspired voice brings out the emotion in your playing. High-End Appointments Like Gotoh Tuners and Ebony Fingerboard Only the finest components grace the Taylor 814ce Builder's Edition.
