Taylor Next Generation Builder's Edition 814ce Adirondack Spruce - Blacktop #56089

~Guitar pictured is the actual guitar that you will receive~

Updated this year with new features that enhance its sound and musical utility, this Builder's Edition 814ce Blacktop offers a richly appointed take on Taylor's flagship Grand Auditorium with a tone that's bolder than ever. Back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with an Adirondack spruce top generate a complex voice with blooming overtones that resonate around clear trebles, warm lows and exceptional power. Inside, a new scalloped variant of V-Class architecture provides an additional boost to volume, sustain and tonal depth, also improving pitch accuracy and harmony all the way up the neck. Player-centered touches include a beveled armrest, matching cutaway and chamfered body edges for a truly seamless feel, while the new onboard Claria System pickup features intuitive soundhole-mounted preamp controls that make it easy to plug in and play on the fly. Appointments complementing the striking black top color treatment include a full-body gloss with a Kona edgeburst for the back and sides, Element fretboard inlays, Gotoh 510 tuners in antique gold, an abalone rosette, maple binding with black and rosewood edge trim, and a rosewood pickguard.
