Taylor 800 Series | Builder's Edition 814ce 50th Anniversary
Sinker Redwood Top - Indian Rosewood Back & Sides | Limited To 1974 Units Worldwide
The Grand Auditorium Builder's Edition 814ce LTD from Taylor's 2024 50th-anniversary collection combines Indian rosewood and sinker redwood for a vibrant sonic palette.

This tonal sophistication is elevated by Taylor's V-Class voicing architecture. The guitar boasts ergonomic features like a bevelled armrest, cutaway, chamfered body edges, and contoured Curve Wing bridge, enhancing the comfort of the Grand Auditorium model. Ideal for flatpicked lead lines, strumming, delicate fingerpicking and everything in between, this Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric boasts a versatile character that translates beautifully in amplified settings through the ES2 pickup. A deluxe hardshell case keeps the 814ce safe wherever you take it.
