Taylor 50th Anniversary Builder’s Edition 814ce LTD Acoustic-Electric Guitar
The 50th Anniversary Builder’s Edition 814ce LTD celebrates Taylor’s flagship guitar with an ultra-refined version featuring Indian rosewood back and sides paired with a sinker redwood top. Rosewood’s rich lows, sparkling highs and lush overtones complement the redwood’s blend of cedar-like warmth and bold projection, all turbocharged by V-Class bracing. Like its standard Builder’s Edition sibling, this model boasts a beveled armrest, beveled cutaway, chamfered edges and a Curve Wing bridge for seamless playing comfort. Limited-edition appointments include a gold-hued mother-of-pearl peghead logo and matching Element inlays, maple purfling around the fretboard and peghead, a green abalone rosette, premium Gotoh 510 tuners, and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots. Finished with a Kona edgeburst and a full-body gloss, this all-purpose Grand Auditorium sports a commemorative 50th anniversary label. Production will be limited to 1,974 guitars worldwide.
