AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
The Taylor Gold Label 814e is a breathtaking blend of vintage craftsmanship and modern innovation, designed for players seeking rich tonal depth and impeccable detail. Inspired by the golden era of 1930s and ’40s flattops, this limited-edition model features a torrefied Sitka spruce top paired with solid Honduran rosewood back and sides, delivering a warm, aged character with powerful projection. The Super Auditorium body shape offers a deeper, fuller voice than a standard Grand Auditorium, while retaining a sleek, comfortable feel that’s ideal for both fingerstyle and strumming.
Built with Taylor’s advanced fanned V-Class bracing and long-tenon neck joint, the 814e delivers exceptional sustain, dynamic range, and rock-solid intonation. A Curve Wing Honduran rosewood bridge and Crelicam ebony fingerboard provide superior responsiveness, while ivoroid binding and Continental inlays evoke classic visual elegance. The onboard LR Baggs Element VTC pickup system ensures natural, high-fidelity amplified tone, making this a standout performer both onstage and off. Whether you're a seasoned player or collector, the Gold Label 814e combines heritage-inspired tone with modern-day reliability.
