Taylor Chief Guitar Designer Andy Powers wrestled with these questions in earnest. The global supply of centuries-old old-growth wood dwindles with each passing year, and builders like Andy are increasingly pressed to find cuts large enough for a 1-piece guitar top. The Taylor team rose to this meet the challenge with the 814ce Builder’s Edition. This new instrument pairs an 814ce’s unbeatable playability and looks with a top crafted from four pieces of old-growth Adirondack spruce. Adirondack spruce is rich in terms of sound and history, having been the go-to acoustic top wood long before Taylor was even founded. Old-growth Adirondack is also incredibly strong, lightweight, and focused. Between the top’s age and the Adirondack’s massive natural vibrational capacity and headroom, what results is a lively resonance that will border on

There’s nothing I don’t like about this. I barely had the money for it but as Stevie Wonder sang, “For once in my life…”. Yes, I will be playing the rest of my life. No, I’m not a pro and don’t want to be. But I wanted the best sound and I knew Taylor delivers. I’ve had the 314CE but this is another level. Everything I play sounds great. The natural resonance and reverb is like listening to angels. I can’t put it down. And the woody smell, omg. I’m in love. Don’t buy that new car, buy this instead. Don’t you deserve it? I do, and I have no regrets. Thank you, Taylor, for making this.
