Legendary Tonewoods Deliver Exceptional Complexity This special 814ce Grand Auditorium pairs Indian rosewood's rich lows and sparkling highs with the warmth and touch sensitivity of sinker redwood, reclaimed from Northern California river logs. Together, they create sophisticated tones perfect for intricate fingerstyle playing. The rosewood yields deep lows with a growling throatiness, while its crisp highs ring out with bell-like clarity. The redwood's midrange bloom adds complexity. This pairing delivers a sweeping tonal palette with singing overtones. Groundbreaking V-Class Bracing Enhances Volume and Sustain Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing optimizes the 814ce's response by boosting volume, sustain and intonation accuracy. The bracing creates purer, more orderly notes for clearer response across the fingerboard. Tuning is easier and harmonics ring out evenly from neck to bridge. Overall, it makes for a vastly improved musical experience you can hear and feel. Ergonomic Contours Enhance Playing Comfort This limited-edition 814ce Builder's Edition 50th Anniversary Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar features contours and appointments designed for superior playing comfort. A beveled armrest eases your strumming arm. The beveled cutaway grants easy access to the upper frets. Chamfered body edges and the contoured bridge fit your body and hand like a natural extension. Together, these ergonomic details let your music flow freely.
