Taylor Builder’s Edition 814ce Honduran/Adirondack Shaded Edge Burst

This is a 2025 Model that is New Old Stock With its comfort-focused design sensibility, top-tier tonewoods and striking details, this Builder’s Edition 814ce represents a new phase of evolution for Taylor’s flagship guitar. This Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric takes a beloved wood pairing to the next level with Honduran rosewood and Adirondack spruce, combining low-end warmth and treble clarity with even more harmonic complexity and headroom. The result is a lush, richly textured voice that remains articulate even with the most aggressive attack, with blooming overtones and unmatched sustain delivering an exceptionally robust musical character that performs beautifully across playing styles and applications. Builder’s Edition contours include chamfered body edges, a beveled armrest and matching cutaway, and a smooth Curve Wing bridge. Along with Taylor’s signature easy-playing neck, players can expect a remarkably comfortable, accommodating experience that’s sure to provide endless inspiration. This model features premium appointments such as 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 a Kona edgeburst for the back and sides and a complementary burst treatment for the top.
