Points for Originality

From its advent, the Grand Auditorium body helped shape the sound of Taylor acoustic guitars. It suits a wide range of playing styles, from light fingerpicking to medium strumming, and produces a clear, balanced sound across the tonal spectrum. In addition to this versatility, the 914ce Builder��s Edition puts supreme playability and style in the hands of every musician with a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body edges and a contoured Curve Wing bridge. Defining the sound of this guitar are lavish tonewoods that bring out a rich sound, enveloping the listener in a world of sonic bliss. Gorgeous Indian rosewood and lutz spruce give you the projection and resonance you expect from a Builder��s Edition Taylor, instantly recognizable from the first note.

Brace Yourself

A huge step forward in the world of acoustic guitar design, Taylor��s V-Class bracing marked an important evolution beyond traditional X-bracing. Optimizing the volume, tone and intonation of the 914ce Builder��s Edition, V-Class bracing creates pure, clear and more orderly notes that don��t cancel each other out. With a consistent response up and down its genuine West African ebony fretboard, the 914ce Builder��s Edition is a player��s dream, conveying every detail of your performance with reliable accuracy.

Easy Does It

If you��ve ever felt like you were in a fight with your guitar, where performing didn��t seem as effortless as it should, the 914ce Builder��s Edition is sure to be a delight. Its neo-tropical mahogany neck has a smooth satin finish, allowing your hands to glide and move about the genuine West African ebony fretboard with ease. The Venetian cutaway also lets you access the upper frets seamlessly, giving you a generous amount of space to play technically high up on the neck.

Amplify Your Style

Bridging the gap between old-world tone and modern playability, Taylor��s ES2 design is built to bring the 914ce��s beautiful sound to the masses. Taylor��s patented behind-the-saddle pickup features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. Since the bottom of the saddle comes in direct contact with the bridge, all the nuance of the guitar��s tone comes through with stunning clarity whether played acoustically or plugged in. Partnered with Taylor��s high-quality preamp, and active bass and treble controls, the ES2 system produces exemplary amplified tone and responsiveness.

Sometimes all the aspects of an instrument come together to create a truly luminous playing experience.
