Description
The Taylor 714e Gold Label Super Auditorium in Sunburst is a great fit for players who want a warm, responsive acoustic-electric with rich tonal complexity and a vintage look to match. It's especially ideal for experienced fingerstyle players and light strummers looking for a guitar that projects well but still responds to subtle dynamics. As part of the Gold Label Collection, it brings a more traditional flavor of tone to the Taylor lineup, thanks to a thoughtful blend of design and tonewood choices.
This model pairs solid Indian rosewood with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, offering deep lows, glassy highs, and that blooming, overtone-rich sound rosewood is known for. The larger Super Auditorium body gives it added warmth and low-end presence while staying articulate and balanced. Taylor's fanned V-Class bracing really opens up the voice of the guitar, and the long-tenon Action Control Neck design improves resonance while making setup tweaks fast and easy.
Playability is fast and smooth, and the slim neck profile makes it easy to move around the fretboard whether you're fingerpicking or flatpicking. The LR Baggs Element VTC system handles stage work with ease, delivering a clean, natural amplified tone. With its golden-brown sunburst finish, firestripe pickguard, and subtle vintage-inspired appointments, this guitar has the tone and the look to back it up. It's one we feel confident putting in any player's hands.
