Description
Few guitars blend beauty, comfort, and sonic excellence quite like the Taylor 914ce Builder's Edition Grand Auditorium in Wild Honey Burst. Whether you're an experienced stage performer, a discerning collector, or a devoted songwriter seeking endless inspiration, this guitar feels tailor-made to elevate your playing. Drawing from Taylor's legacy of innovation and meticulous craftsmanship, the Builder's Edition 914ce captures the spirit of modern acoustic artistry while paying homage to the roots of fine guitar design.
Crafted with a solid Lutz spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides, this 914ce delivers a shimmering, articulate tone that balances warmth with sparkling high-end clarity. The Wild Honey Burst finish highlights the natural beauty of the spruce, while a subtle Kona edgeburst on the body ties everything together with understated elegance. Thanks to Taylor's groundbreaking V-Class bracing, you'll enjoy greater sustain, improved volume, and enhanced intonation; perfect for expressive solo work, intricate fingerstyle, or dynamic rhythm playing. With onboard ES2 electronics, your tone translates flawlessly in any live or studio setting.
Designed for supreme comfort, the Builder's Edition features a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered edges, and rolled fretboard edges, ensuring a playing experience that feels effortless from the first chord to the final note. The Silent Satin finish further enhances the tactile feel while reducing unwanted noise, making this a dream guitar for both practice and performance. Antique gold Gotoh 510 tuners deliver precise tuning stability, rounding out the guitar's thoughtful hardware touches.
Visually, the 914ce Builder's Edition is nothing short of breathtaking. Belle Fleur inlays crafted from paua and mother of pearl, a paua rosette with ebony soundhole binding, and koa purfling lend it an air of refined artistry. A mother-of-pearl peghead logo and rich aesthetic details complement the luxurious Wild Honey Burst finish, making this guitar every bit as inspiring to look at as it is to play.
