Blending innovation, premium craftsmanship, and timeless style, the Taylor Gold Label 814e-SB in Sunburst represents a stunning evolution of Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium, guiding players of all skill levels into a new era of acoustic excellence. With its newly designed Super Auditorium body shape, this guitar delivers enhanced power, focus, and headroom, making it ideal for both nuanced finger-picking and dynamic strumming. The torrefied Sitka spruce top and Hawaiian Koa back and sides produce a complex, richly textured tone with excellent warmth and projection.

This special edition Gold Label model is built with a fanned variant of Taylor's V-Class bracing, optimized for tonal clarity and responsiveness across the frequency range. A new long-tenon neck joint improves sustain and resonance while offering improved adjustability, making it easier than ever to dial in your perfect setup. Visually, the Gold Brown Sunburst top pairs beautifully with the natural rosewood back and sides, accented by grained ivoroid binding, a stunning engraved pickguard, and mother-of-pearl Continental inlays throughout.

Equipped with LR Baggs Element VTC electronics, the 814e-SB offers a warm, natural amplified tone with discreet soundhole-mounted electronic controls. Antique chrome Gotoh 510 tuners with ebony buttons add a touch of understated luxury and unmatched tuning stability. This model ships in a deluxe Taylor brown hardshell case with a British Cocoa exterior and is available now at Haggerty’s Music.
