AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
GOLD LABEL 814E KOA SB
The Taylor Gold Label 814e is a masterful fusion of vintage soul and modern precision, drawing from the golden era of acoustic guitar design while showcasing Taylor’s most refined innovations. With a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid figured Hawaiian koa back and sides, this Grand Auditorium delivers a voice that’s rich, mature, and instantly broken-in — full of warmth, clarity, and low-end complexity. Inspired by the elegant flattops of the 1930s and ’40s, the Gold Label 814e boasts a sunburst gloss finish, ivoroid binding, and Continental inlays for a timeless aesthetic.
At the heart of the Gold Label 814e is a forward-thinking build featuring fanned V-Class bracing and a long-tenon neck joint, giving the guitar powerful projection, superior intonation, and exceptional sustain. The Honduran rosewood Curve Wing bridge not only elevates tonal transfer but adds a unique visual flourish. Equipped with the LR Baggs Element VTC pickup system, this guitar is ready for the stage, offering clear, organic-sounding amplification that brings out every nuance. From fingerstyle finesse to full-chord strumming, the Gold Label 814e feels and sounds like a custom heirloom instrument designed to inspire.

Materials used can look different from guitar to guitar, including timber grain and colour, parts colours and finishing. If an instrument is a one-of-a-kind or preowned guitar, the picture will always be of the actual guitar in stock, but production models may have slight variations to the picture shown.
