Overview

Discover a rare opportunity with this Taylor 814ce Prototype, uniquely built with a Port Orford Cedar top—a departure from the standard Sitka spruce and a feature only found on this special prototype, #4108. Port Orford Cedar offers a fast, articulate response and a warm, complex character that sits beautifully between spruce and cedar, making this 814ce stand out from any other in the lineup.

Paired with classic Indian rosewood back and sides, Taylor’s revolutionary V-Class bracing, and the comfortable Grand Auditorium shape, this prototype delivers a versatile tonal palette suited for fingerstyle, strumming, and everything in between. Premium appointments and ES2 electronics complete this show-stopping, collector-grade acoustic.
