Crafted to deliver an ultra-refined playing experience with tone and comfort to match, the Taylor K14ce Builder's Edition is a Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar designed to the exacting preferences of master guitar designer Andy Powers. With its solid, beautifully grained Hawaiian koa back and sides, the guitar produces warm lows and crisp, clear treble notes. The specially roasted spruce top adds a bit of aged sweetness. Builder's Edition special features include a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body and fretboard edges, and a Silent Satin finish, all complemented by the artful Spring Vine inlay. The Taylor K14ce Builder's Edition ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.

This gorgeous Grand Auditorium features Hawaiian koa back and sides paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top. Inspired by Taylor’s revolutionary V-Class bracing, which boosts volume evenly across the tonal spectrum, increases sustain, and improves the natural intonation, the Taylor K14ce Builder's Edition creates a more harmonious relationship between the notes you play, helping chords ring out in cohesive splendor.
