Balanced, Versatile Sound From Premium Tonewoods

Revolutionary V-Class Bracing
At the heart of the Taylor 814ce is their groundbreaking V-Class bracing. This innovative bracing pattern boosts volume, sustain and intonation for notes that ring out with remarkable clarity and richness. The entire fretboard is brought into finely intonated focus, improving the guitar’s musicality, so you’ll spend more time playing inspiring chords and melodies, and less time wrestling with pitch. Whether unplugged or amplified, guitarists will appreciate the 814ce’s dynamic range, harmonic complexity and rock-solid tuning stability thanks to Taylor V-Class bracing.
Easy-Playing Grand Auditorium Body
Taylor is renowned for its Grand Auditorium body shape that gives the 814ce a bold, well-balanced voice, and unparalleled ergonomics suited for a multitude of genres and playing styles. Its comfortable contours enhance playability, while the gently sloped Venetian cutaway offers easy access to upper frets, allowing acoustic guitarists to travel up the fretboard in unrestricted ways typically only found on electrics. The premium Taylor 814ce V-Class acoustic-electric even features a rosewood armrest on its body to help you find the most natural playing position, for an effortless experience every time you pick it up.
Natural Amplification With ES2 Electronics
Taylor Expression System 2 electronics accurately reproduce the 814ce’s acoustic tone when plugged in, utilizing the expertly designed pickup and preamp to convey the guitar’s dynamics and responsiveness through any amp or PA system. Volume, treble and bass controls allow you to shape your amplified tone, and blending the high- and low-end knobs can reveal unique midrange voicings. The ES2 electronics ensure your amplified sound remains as natural and organic as the 814ce’s pure acoustic timbre.
