Vintage Heart, Modern Soul
Meet the Taylor Gold Label K14e—a guitar that blends the golden era of flattops with Taylor’s relentless innovation. This isn’t just an instrument; it’s a showcase piece with a voice to match. The first thing you’ll notice is the stunning figured Hawaiian Koa back and sides, paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top finished in a warm Golden Brown Sunburst. This combination delivers a sound that’s both broken-in from day one and destined to grow richer with every chord you play. It’s a guitar that feels alive in your hands, buzzing with stories waiting to be told.
Super Auditorium Body: A New Shape for a New Sound
Taylor has introduced its new **Super Auditorium** body shape with the Gold Label series. It’s a subtle but powerful evolution of the classic Grand Auditorium, with slightly wider contours and a deeper, more vintage-inspired voice. Paired with a fanned V-Class bracing system, the result is staggering—you get more power, more focus, and a low-end resonance that you can feel in your chest, all without sacrificing that signature Taylor clarity.
Unplugged Feel, Plugged-In Purity
Under the hood, this K14e is equipped with the **LR Baggs Element VTC electronics** system, a choice that speaks volumes about its professional intentions. This isn’t your average piezo. It captures the warm, organic voice of the Koa and torrefied spruce with uncanny accuracy, translating every nuance of your playing when you’re plugged in. Whether you’re on stage or in the studio, the sound is pure, authentic, and—most importantly—yours.
Next-Level Playability
The neck is where the magic happens for the player, and this one doesn’t disappoint. The Neo-Tropical Mahogany neck features Taylor’s fan-favorite Standard Carve, a comfortable profile that feels instantly familiar. A new long-tenon neck joint enhances the wood-to-wood connection, boosting resonance and sustain. Topped with a glassy Crelicam Ebony fingerboard, this guitar is built for buttery-smooth runs and effortless chording, session after session.
