The 2026 Taylor 814ce Grand Auditorium represents the pinnacle of Taylor’s innovation and craftsmanship, blending the time-honored tonewoods of Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce with next-generation features for players who demand uncompromising sound and feel. As part of the flagship 800 Series, this model has long been celebrated for its lush overtones, rich bass response, and crystal-clear articulation — and now it sings even more sweetly thanks to upgraded scalloped V-Class bracing and the revolutionary Action Control Neck. Whether you're a recording artist, touring performer, or home enthusiast, the 814ce provides a high-fidelity acoustic voice with unmatched versatility.

The newly integrated long-tenon neck joint adds warmth and resonance by improving the contact between neck and body, while also enabling effortless, string-on micro-adjustments to your action — a major plus for players dealing with changing climates or varied musical settings. Taylor’s Claria electronics system ensures pristine amplified sound, with intuitive soundhole-mounted controls (Volume, Tone, and Mid-Contour) that make it easy to dial in your tone on the fly. This guitar excels at everything from fingerstyle nuance to aggressive strumming, and thanks to its balanced, full-range voice, it’s equally at home in the studio or on stage.

Visually, the 814ce carries the refined elegance you’d expect from Taylor’s premium lineup, with a natural gloss body, subtle detailing, and the classy look of a Venetian cutaway. Paired with a premium hardshell case, this is not just a guitar — it’s a performance partner, precision instrument, and lifelong companion all in one. The next generation of Taylor excellence, available now at Haggerty’s Music.
