Overview
Legacy 914ce
Watch VideoThe latest addition to the Legacy Collection—our family of guitars inspired by classic Bob Taylor builds and key moments in Taylor history—is the Legacy 914ce, a Grand Auditorium that hearkens back to a popular member of our 900 Series. This model features the tonewood pairing of Indian rosewood and Engelmann spruce, which was the foundation of the 900 Series for many years and beloved by players for its combination of low-end warmth, treble-range sparkle and rich, blooming overtones. As with other models in the collection, the Legacy 914ce features traditional X-bracing along with some modern performance-enhancing retouches that provide a seamless, exceptionally responsive playing experience, including our modern neck profile. Aesthetic details include green abalone top purfling and rosette, gold hardware, rosewood binding, a full-body gloss finish, and elegant Cindy inlays inspired by and named for Bob Taylor's wife. This model ships with built-in LR Baggs Element VTC electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.
Features
Classic Design Honors the Original Grand Auditorium
Grand Auditorium
Our flagship shape offers comfort and cross-genre utility, with a clear, balanced tone suited for both fingerstyle and strumming.
Indian Rosewood
The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.
Engelmann Spruce
Engelmann has a mature tone and yields a slightly richer midrange than Sitka.
LR Baggs - Element VTC
This undersaddle pickup channels tone from the movement of a guitar’s top, delivering a remarkably warm, detailed sound in Gold Label and Legacy Collection guitars.
Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.

QC Issues on a High-End Taylor
My 2012 Taylor is flawless, but my new Legacy 914ce arrived with a cracked inlay and fretboard edge separations (despite proper 53% RH case storage). For a flagship price, Taylor’s quality control and internal case packaging during transit have noticeably slipped. Disappointing build quality for a high-end model.
