A classic tonewood combination — Sitka spruce and Honduran rosewood
Nothing beats the sound of real rosewood topped with spruce — and that's exactly what you get with the Taylor 814ce Deluxe First Edition. It features a beautiful Sitka spruce top, which gives you a bright and balanced tone. Add to that the rich, complex sound and astonishing projection of this guitar's Honduran rosewood back and sides, and you have a guitar with timeless tone.
Grand Auditorium body style gives you exceptional presence
Taylor's beloved Grand Auditorium body style, featured on this 814ce Deluxe First Edition, employs the width and depth of the dreadnought. But its waist is narrower, which gives Grand Auditorium-bodied acoustic guitars a sleeker look, with more treble. The 814ce Deluxe First Edition's Grand Auditorium body style also helps to sharpen the definition of each note, balancing out nicely with the excellent projection of its Sitka spruce top. That makes it perfect whether you're fingerpicking or flatpicking.
Cutting-edge Taylor Expression System 2 electronics
If you play plugged in, then you're going to love the Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics built into your 814ce Deluxe First Edition. The key to this fantastic system is the 3-section proprietary pickup located behind the saddle. Because of where it's positioned and how it's integrated into the 814ce Deluxe First Edition's saddle, the ES2 pickup provides you with remarkably clear and accurate sound. In addition to a master volume control, a pair of tone controls lets you tweak your highs and lows to get the sound you need. A discrete phase switch offers vital onboard feedback suppression.
