Overview
814e (2020)
For fans of our flagship 814 Grand Auditorium who prefer the full-body, non-cutaway style, the 814e represents a versatile option that covers a wide musical territory. Back and sides of solid Indian rosewood pair with a Sitka spruce top for a richly textured, sparkling response with clear highs and warm lows around a slightly scooped midrange, with V-Class bracing inside to deliver louder volume and longer sustain. A radius-style rosewood armrest takes the edge off the lower bout for enhanced playing comfort. With sharp wood and shell appointments and built-in ES2 electronics, the 814e is a great choice for playing at home, in studio or on stage.
Features
Indian Rosewood
The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.
Sitka Spruce
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
Expression System® 2
The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
V-Class Bracing
Our patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
