The Taylor Builder's edition 814ce 50th Anniversary in detail

Taylor Guitars celebrates five decades of guitar building with strictly limited edition models that showcase premium tonewoods, exquisite equipment, sophisticated craftsmanship and the innovative spirit that defines the Taylor Guitar legacy. The Builder's edition 814ce is one of these models.

Taylor's most famous model in a new look

The Taylor Builder's edition 814ce 50th Anniversary Limited edition celebrates Taylor's flagship model with a sophisticated and resonant version that pairs Indian rosewood bottom and sides with a Redwood top . Rosewood's rich bass, sparkling highs and lush overtones complement the redwood's cedar-like warmth and powerful projection, further enhanced by Taylor's patented V-Class bracing.

Luxurious special equipment

Like the standard Builder's edition model, this model also features a Beveled Armrest, Beveled cutaway, rounded body edges and a Curve Wing bridge for the perfect playing experience. The limited edition's features include a mother-of-pearl headstock logo, gold tuning machines and color-matched element inlays, stylish maple binding around the fretboard and headstock, an abalone rosette, high-quality Gotoh 510 tuning machines and ebony bridgepins with gold acrylic Dots.

Only the best for your birthday

The Taylor Builder's edition 814ce 50th Anniversary is a universally applicable Grand Auditorium. It features a high-gloss finish on the body and a satin-finished neck and bears a label celebrating the manufacturer's 50th anniversary. Production is limited to 1,974 guitars worldwide, so it's worth being quick!
