A New Generation of Taylor Tone
Meet the next evolution of a modern classic. This limited-edition Taylor 814ce isn't just a stunning guitar; it's a leap forward in acoustic design, blending timeless tonewoods with cutting-edge performance features. The first thing you'll notice is the striking Casablanca Beige top, a custom color that gives this instrument a unique and sophisticated vibe. But the real magic happens when you play it. The combination of a solid Spruce top and Indian Rosewood back and sides delivers that iconic Taylor sound, rich with harmonic complexity, deep lows, and a glassy, articulate high end.
Next-Gen Bracing and Electronics
Under the hood, this 814ce features Taylor's revolutionary scalloped V-Class bracing. This updated architecture enhances the volume, sustain, and intonation that V-Class is known for, while adding a warmer, more powerful low-end response. It’s a sound that feels both familiar and brand new. When it's time to plug in, the new Claria Acoustic Pickup System truly shines. Developed with input from pro artists and sound engineers, this system uses a reimagined under-saddle piezo and a custom preamp to deliver an incredibly clear, natural, and feedback-resistant amplified tone. The soundhole-mounted controls for Volume, Tone, and Mid-Contour make it easy to dial in your perfect sound on any stage.
Unrivaled Playability
From the first chord, you'll feel the difference. The Neo-Tropical Mahogany neck with its standard carve is pure comfort, while the West African Crelicam Ebony fingerboard is smooth and fast. A standout feature is the radiused Indian Rosewood armrest, which softens the edge of the body for a remarkably comfortable playing experience, whether you're practicing for hours or performing all night. Add in the elegant Mother of Pearl 'Element' inlays, Rock Maple binding, and smoked nickel tuners, and you have a guitar that plays, sounds, and looks like a true top-tier instrument.

- In business since 1976! Moore Music has been a premier brick-and-mortar guitar shop in Evansville, Indiana since shortly after opening in 1976. Founder, Pat Moore, instilled in his business the concept of old-school service that we build upon today. When the current owner, Brett Mulzer, took the store online as Moore Guitars in 2013, we quickly developed a reputation for honesty and integrity in all our interactions with our customers. That’s a prime reason why we’re the fastest-growing online guitar shop.
- Old School Customer Service: Nothing is more important than helping a customer even if we don’t make a sale. We believe that if we’re honest with you, and treat you right, you’ll be back. Call us, or chat with us online. We love talking about guitars, and we want to help you find your perfect instrument. Even if it’s not from us.... but we think it will be!
- Our sales staff are all musicians! What’s more important than communication? We speak your language. Whether you’re a beginner or a professional player, we’ve been in your shoes. A lot of aspects of the guitar are intangible, and a non-player just can’t understand. It’s a guitar thing. But we can talk about tone and feel in the same language you use. We know what it means to love an instrument, and we want to help you find your new love.
You should have NO disappointments when you see this guitar and hold it for its first strum! Please call the staff at Moore Guitars if you would like to have a personal “on the phone” description of this guitar. Thank you for looking at our listing!
