The Taylor Builder’s Edition 814ce Next Generation Blacktop represents the most evolved version of Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium platform, blending premium tonewoods with meaningful performance upgrades. Built with an Adirondack spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, it delivers a powerful, dynamic voice with strong low-end presence, clear trebles, and rich harmonic complexity. The updated scalloped V-Class bracing and Action Control Neck enhance both resonance and adjustability, while the Builder’s Edition comfort package ensures a smooth, effortless playing experience. Finished with a bold Blacktop aesthetic, this model balances traditional tone with a modern, refined feel.
