Gold Label 814e SB
This edition of Taylor's all-new Gold Label 814e adds a lustrous sunburst finish to match its seasoned, heritage-style sound and lush overtones. Featuring the new Super Auditorium body shape, this model boasts back and sides of Honduran rosewood, a torrefied Sitka spruce top and a fanned variant of a tone-boosting V-Class bracing architecture. The result is a sound with stunning warmth and richness, complemented with remarkable power and clarity even with the most aggressive attack. A new long-tenon neck joint improves sonic transfer for greater resonance while also offering even easier and more precise adjustability, letting you dial in the feel you need to sound your best. A suite of Continental inlays, grained ivoroid trim, a new pickguard, antique chrome Gotoh 510 tuners with ebony buttons, and a full-body gloss round out the package. This model includes LR Baggs Element VTC electronics with discrete soundhole-mounted controls, ensuring warm, rich sound when you need to plug in. The Gold Label 814e SB ships with a deluxe hardshell case featuring a stylish British Cocoa exterior.
A New Recipe for an Old Voice
Gold Label Taylor guitars generate a lush, warm sound that will remind players of the heritage instruments that first made acoustic guitars popular among music lovers. Built on a V-Class foundation, the new sound is a result of three design elements.
New Body Shape: The Super Auditorium
Similar to the Grand Auditorium, this new body is slightly longer with a wider lower bout, yielding improved low-end presence.
New Bracing: Fanned V-Class
A fan-like arrangement of braces attached with traditional hide glue produces more midrange richness and power.
New Neck Joint: Long-Tenon
Enhanced wood coupling translates into greater low-end resonance with a glueless configuration that offers easy, precise adjustability.

Honduran Rosewood Back and Sides
Extremely dense compared to other rosewood species, Honduran rosewood sings with a uniquely smooth voice that makes it worthy of our finest guitars.
