Taylor Next Generation 814ce (serial 1203026040)

The Taylor Next Generation 814ce brings Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium design into the modern era with refined tonewoods, updated bracing, and player-centric enhancements that elevate both acoustic and amplified performance.

Its solid Sitka spruce top paired with solid Indian rosewood back and sides produces a rich, balanced voice with lush midrange warmth, clear trebles, and articulate bass that suits everything from delicate fingerstyle to powerful strumming. The latest scalloped V-Class bracing increases resonance, sustain, and dynamic balance, while the innovative Action Control Neck lets you adjust the string action easily from inside the soundhole for personalized feel. Onstage and in the studio, the new Claria™ pickup and preamp system delivers articulate and natural amplified tone with simple, intuitive controls.

With tasteful appointments and a deluxe hardshell case included, the Next Generation 814ce is a stunning blend of classic Taylor craftsmanship and modern performance upgrades.
