Get Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium sound with the Taylor 814ce Next Generation Acoustic-Electric Guitar (2026) in Natural, available at Irvine Art and Music. With its classic Sitka spruce and Indian rosewood tonewood pairing, this 814ce delivers lush overtones, clear top-end sparkle, and a rich low end that works beautifully for fingerstyle detail, dynamic strumming, and professional recording or live performance.

For 2026, the Next Generation 814ce adds Taylor’s scalloped V-Class bracing for a fuller, more powerful response with longer sustain and improved harmony up the neck. It also features the long-tenon Action Control Neck for convenient adjustability, plus Taylor’s Claria electronics with soundhole-mounted controls and a mid-contour knob for quick, reliable amplified tone. Premium touches like a radius-style rosewood armrest and a deluxe hardshell case make it a true “do-everything” luxury acoustic-electric.
