Overview
Builder's Edition 614ce
If you're on the hunt for a versatile, comfortable, masterfully crafted acoustic guitar, the Builder's Edition 614ce is a must-play. Designed for the ultimate playing experience, this Grand Auditorium is outfitted with an armrest, beveled cutaway, chamfered body and fretboard edges, and the noise-reducing Silent Satin finish. Big Leaf maple back and sides pair up with a torrefied Sitka spruce top for a clear, transparent sound that reflects each player's stylistic quirks, with a touch of extra warmth coming from the specially roasted top. V-Class bracing boosts volume and sustain to ensure you can cut through to the front of any mix, and the ES2 pickup provides faithful plugged-in tone. This model ships with a deluxe hardshell case.
Features
Grand Auditorium
Our flagship shape offers comfort and cross-genre utility, with a clear, balanced tone suited for both fingerstyle and strumming.
Maple
Highly player-reflective; channels the unique sound of each player’s touch. Clear, shimmering trebles. Modern voicing enhances warmth and depth.
The Taylor Neck
Introduced in 1999, the patented Taylor Neck offers legendary playing comfort, exceptional intonation and easy adjustability.
Torrefied Spruce
Treated with our special roasting process, torrefied spruce tops deliver all the clarity, balance and projection you’d expect from a traditional spruce top with an extra dash of warmth and played-in depth.
Expression System® 2
The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
Beveled Cutaway
Our beveled cutaway design provides a more player-friendly feel for guitarists who utilize every inch of the fretboard. It features a compound design with a smoothened edge along the corner of the body between the end of the cutaway and the neck heel, providing a more comfortable feel for the fretting hand.
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.

Why are my bridge pins loose when restringin?
Taylors do not use pressure fit bridge pins. They will feel loose until there is string tension from tuning to pitch, and that's what locks them in place.
Can this be ordered with a pickguard? If so, which color?
Sorry. This one is not available from the factory with a pickguard. One would have to be installed after the purchase.

We use D'Addario XS lights (012"-053"). Switching to Custom lights may require a minor truss rod adjustment. <a href="https://www.taylorguitars.com/support/maintenance/truss-rod-adjustments" target="_blank">https://www.taylorguitars.com/support/maintenance/truss-rod-adjustments</a>

My Taylor 614ce Builder's Edition is Amazing
I just received my Taylor 614ce Builder's Edition and it is amazing. The flamed big leaf maple is beautiful and the sitka spruce top has a really nice grain. The quality of the construction is top notch. The binding and fretboard are perfectly smooth. The finish is beautiful and free of defects. The neck is as smooth as a baby's bottom. I was amazed at how well it plays and I am VERY happy with this choice.
