Give yourself or someone you really love the gift of this beautiful 2025 Taylor 814e Gold Label.
Taylor’s Gold Label Collection harkens back to an earlier age of acoustic guitar building, merging the heritage sound and style of 1930s- and 1940s-era flat tops with Andy Powers’s boundary-pushing 6-string philosophy. It all starts with the Super Auditorium body — a shape that modifies Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium with both a larger profile and a deeper, fuller sound. From the fanned V-Class bracing to the long-tenon neck joint, this 6-string leverages a plethora of golden-age features to send its sound back to the steel-string acoustic’s formative era. A torrefied Sitka spruce top and Honduran rosewood back and sides only compound the 814e’s old-school character with muscular lows, full-bodied highs, and the dynamic sensitivity of a perfectly played-in instrument. Plus, the 814e’s Standard Carve mahogany neck, 15-inch-radius ebony fingerboard, and LR Baggs Element VTC electronics retain the effortless playability and stage-ready sound that’s cemented Taylor as the benchmark for modern acoustic-electric performance. A smattering of charmingly old-school cosmetics round out the Gold Label 814e 6-string with golden-era style, including a revamped headstock shape, a handsome script logo, and “Continental” inlays.
