Taylor Koa Series | Builder’s Edition K14ce

Crafted to deliver an ultra-refined playing experience with tone and comfort to match, the Builder’s Edition K14ce is a Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar designed to the exacting preferences of Taylor’s master guitar designer, Andy Powers. Back and sides of solid, beautifully grained Hawaiian koa produce warm lows and crisp, clear treble notes, with the specially roasted spruce top adding a bit of aged sweetness. Builder’s Edition special features include a bevelled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body and fretboard edges, and Taylor’s Silent Satin finish, with an artful Spring Vine inlay that tops off the visual details. The Builder’s Edition K14ce ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.

Grand Auditorium – Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.

Hawaiian Koa – Few woods carry the allure of Hawaiian koa, with its gorgeous figure and sweet, complex tone.

Sitka Spruce – The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.

Expression System 2 – The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Bevelled Cutaway – Taylor’s bevelled cutaway design provides a more player-friendly feel for guitarists who utilise every inch of the fretboard. It features a compound design with a smoothened edge along the corner of the body between the end of the cutaway and the neck heel, providing a more comfortable feel for the fretting hand. 

V-Class Bracing – Taylor’s patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern – a new sonic engine – that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
