Dressed in an alluring sunburst finish that signals its heritage sound, the Gold Label 514ce SB offers yet another enticing flavor of acoustic tone. This model features the Super Auditorium body shape exclusive to our Gold Label collection, a slightly larger, non-cutaway variant of our popular Grand Auditorium that serves up remarkable warmth, depth and power, all with a decidedly old-school character. Back and sides of solid mahogany paired with a torrefied spruce top deliver a focused, dry midrange voice, while the fanned V-Class bracing inside dials up more volume and sustain. Blending signature Taylor playing comfort with quick, easy adjustability, our new Action Control Neck also improves tonal transfer, contributing to the warm, rich sound of the Gold Label 514ce SB. This model sports cream-colored binding, rosette, pickguard and Crest fretboard inlays, along with a Curve Wing bridge in Honduran rosewood with matching pins, nickel tuning machines, and a full-body gloss finish. It ships with LR Baggs Element VTC electronics and a British Cocoa deluxe hardshell case.
