Experience the exceptional craftsmanship and vintage-inspired sound of the Taylor Gold Label 814e Koa Acoustic-electric Guitar, available at Irvine Art and Music. Designed for discerning musicians who appreciate both heritage tone and modern innovation, this stunning guitar blends golden-era aesthetics with Taylor’s renowned playability and precision.

A Vintage-Inspired Masterpiece

The Taylor Gold Label Collection pays homage to the golden age of acoustic guitar building, incorporating time-honored techniques with contemporary refinements. The 814e Koa features Taylor’s exclusive Super Auditorium body shape, an enhanced version of the flagship Grand Auditorium that delivers a deeper, fuller resonance. This guitar is built to capture the warmth and richness of classic flat-top guitars from the 1930s and 1940s, while still offering the effortless playability Taylor is known for.

Premium Tonewoods for Superior Sound

• Solid Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top – The torrefaction process ages the wood, producing a naturally broken-in, ultra-responsive tone with warmth and balance.

• Solid Figured Hawaiian Koa Back & Sides – This exquisite tonewood enhances midrange clarity, crisp highs, and a distinctively bright, articulate character.

• Fanned V-Class Bracing – Installed with traditional hot hide glue, this innovative bracing system provides superior volume, sustain, and harmonic depth.

Unparalleled Playability & Performance

• Standard Carve Neo-Tropical Mahogany Neck – Designed for comfort and smooth playability, perfect for fingerstyle players and strummers alike.

• 15-inch Radius Crelicam Ebony Fingerboard – Offers fluid movement across the frets, adorned with elegant Continental shell/MOP inlays.

• 25.5-inch Scale Length & 1.75-inch Nut Width – Delivers balanced tension and comfortable string spacing for precision playing.

• Long-Tenon Neck Joint – Enhances wood-to-wood coupling for increased resonance and a richer low-end response.

Stage-Ready Electronics & Premium Hardware

• LR Baggs Element VTC Electronics – Accurately captures the guitar’s natural acoustic tone for an authentic plugged-in experience.

• Gotoh 510 Antique Chrome Tuners – Ensure superior tuning stability and precision.

• Curve Wing Honduran Rosewood Bridge & White Micarta Saddle – Further enhances sustain and tonal clarity.

• Hardshell Case Included – Protects your investment with durable, high-quality craftsmanship.

Timeless Aesthetics with a Modern Edge

From its revamped headstock shape featuring a retro-inspired Taylor script logo to the faux tortoiseshell pickguard with Continental inlay, the Gold Label 814e Koa embodies a perfect blend of tradition and innovation. The Natural gloss finish highlights the intricate grain of the figured Hawaiian koa, making this guitar as visually striking as it is sonically exceptional.
