Taylor Next Generation 814ce — Taylor's Flagship Grand Auditorium, Evolved

The Next Generation 814ce takes everything players love about Taylor's most iconic model and pushes it further. Three major engineering upgrades — scalloped V-Class bracing, the Action Control Neck, and Claria electronics — make this the most versatile, playable, and stage-ready 814ce ever built.

Scalloped V-Class Bracing — More Power, More Sustain

Taylor's scalloped V-Class bracing framework unlocks a new level of acoustic performance. Expect greater volume, longer sustain, and improved intonation and harmonic agreement across every fret — the kind of resonance that makes every note feel intentional.

Action Control Neck — Dialed-In Playability

The long-tenon Action Control Neck lets you adjust string height quickly and easily — no full setup required. Whether you prefer low action for speed or a higher feel for resonance, this neck puts control in your hands and keeps the guitar playing exactly how you want it.

Claria Electronics — Natural Tone, On Stage

Claria's soundhole-mounted controls and mid-contour knob make it effortless to shape your amplified sound on the fly. Transparent, natural pickup response means the 814ce sounds like itself through any PA — no coloration, no compromise.
