With a long history of inspiring players across genres and styles, Taylor's flagship Grand Auditorium now showcases even more player-focused design elements.  Over the years, Taylor has developed the the 814ce, culminating in the new Next Generation model found here.  It is undoubtedly the best version.
This model sports the beloved pairing of Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce, which yield a lush overtone profile to complement top-end clarity and a rich bass range. Inside, the scalloped V-Class bracing framework dials up more power, longer sustain and improved harmony between notes all the way up the fretboard.
 
Other upgrades include a radius-style rosewood armrest, the long-tenon Action Control Neck for unmatched adjustability and resonance, and new Claria electronics, which feature soundhole-mounted controls and a mid-contour knob that makes it easy to dial in the perfect amplified sound. Other details include Element fretboard inlays, a rosewood pickguard, maple binding and a full-body gloss finish.
 
It ships with a deluxe hardshell case.
