Pushing forward into bold new traditions, we have the Taylor Guitars Builder's Edition 514ce. This key addition to the Builder's Edition lineup gathers plenty of time-tested features Taylor has shown their mastery over as well as a few distinct features to make this model as thrilling as any other new addition. For Taylor fans universally, this Builder's Edition gives quite a reason to celebrate.

This Taylor Guitars Builder's Edition model continues in the Taylor Builder's tradition of exceptional tonewoods, construction, and tonality. Bringing the best forward for the most discerning of players, this Builder's Edition 514ce is a treat. For starters, with this 514ce, we have a classic Taylor Grand Auditorium that draws inspiration for the Taylor Guitars 50th Anniversary Builder's Edition 314ce. Comfortably designed with cutaways and body bevels, this body is sleek and welcoming.

Coming together with a Sitka spruce top and solid Urban Ash back and sides, these tonewoods form the basis for a striking and musical experience from here until the very end. Urban Ash, a responsibly-sourced wood from Southern California, offers a nice warmth and richness combined with the Sitka spruce's bright and crisp voice. Within, the Sitka spruce top is treated to Taylor's V-Class bracing pattern which focuses the projection and output of the guitar to a concise sum, only adding to its musicality.

This Builder's Edition 514ce continues on from here with a mahogany neck paired with a Taylor Guitars West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard. Noted for its rich, dark color, this special pick of ebony straight from Taylor's very own Cameroon ebony mill makes for a now standby addition to this Builder's Edition model. The ebony is lined with Italian acrylic Compass inlays that give off a classy and refined visual impact.

Matching its fine tonewood construction, the Builder's Edition 514ce is punched up with a number of considerations for performance and playability. For one, this Builder's Edition is equipped with premium Gotoh 510 antique chrome tuning machines that make stringing a breeze. These tuners are matched at the guitar's opposite end by a Curve Wing bridge to ground strings stably. These considerations for stringing are accompanied by the addition of Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics system which brings the tones of this Builder's Edition to the stage or studio seamlessly. This whole experience wraps up with a gloss finish and an included Taylor Deluxe hardshell brown case.

As a point of distinction for Taylor acoustic guitars, Builder's Edition models step up for exceptional musical experiences. This Builder's Edition 514ce is no different for players seeking that new echelon of sound and style.
