814ce 2013
The flagship series of our acoustic/electric line traces back to Bob Taylor’s first rosewood guitars, which helped establish a modern acoustic guitar sound. The Grand Auditorium 814ce has long been a top seller for its versatility. Contemporary appointments on the 2013 edition include curly maple binding around the body, fretboard and peghead, a pearl fretboard inlay, an abalone rosette, and abalone dot bridge pins.
