Taylor Next-Gen Builder's Edition 814ce Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Honduran Rosewood/Adirondack Spruce

Description

For 2026, three unique wood pairings and flavors of rosewood Builder’s Edition 814ce models are offered with Taylor's next-gen performance features. Beyond the neck, bracing and electronics updates, the models also share an array of comfort-enhancing features that define the Builder’s Edition design philosophy. These include a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body edges, and Taylor's Curve Wing bridge, along with other sophisticated appointment details that elevate the aesthetic appeal.


This powerhouse pairing of Honduran rosewood and Adirondack spruce delivers more of everything — more sonic richness, a higher volume ceiling, and extra resonance, especially with the new scalloped bracing architecture and long-tenon Action Control Neck. Together with the ergonomic Builder’s Edition contouring, it gives players an incredibly expressive acoustic experience in feel and sound.
