Taylor Legacy 514ce clarity with real world playability

The Taylor Legacy 514ce is that sweet spot where modern acoustic-electric convenience meets a rich, expressive acoustic voice. It feels instantly familiar, responds to every touch, and is built to live on the stage, in the studio, and everywhere in between.

Grand Auditorium body that does it all

The Grand Auditorium shape is Taylor’s do it all body style. It is big enough to give your chords depth and bloom, yet focused enough that fingerstyle lines stay articulate and never get muddy.

The cutaway keeps upper fret access easy, so those melodic lines and high chord voicings are right there without a fight. Long sets feel easier on the shoulder thanks to the comfortable, balanced body outline.

Acoustic-electric and ready for the stage

This Legacy 514ce is an acoustic-electric, which means it is ready to plug straight into a PA, acoustic amp, or recording interface. You get the honesty of an acoustic with the practicality of a gig ready instrument that will not leave you wrestling feedback all night.

Whether you are on a worship team, playing songwriter rounds, or tracking at home, the onboard pickup system translates your playing with clarity so your dynamics and touch actually matter.

Easy playing Taylor feel

Taylor is known for necks that feel friendly from the first chord, and this Legacy 514ce sticks to that recipe. Chords up the neck stay comfortable, single note lines flow easily, and you are not fighting the guitar to get clean notes and wide bends.

Real talk, this is the kind of neck that makes you want to keep practicing. You focus on the music instead of thinking about your hands.

New, dialed in, and ready to inspire

This is a brand new Taylor Legacy 514ce, not a wall-beaten demo. It has been inspected in our shop and given our Player-Perfect setup so the saddle height, nut slots, and relief are dialed in for real world players, not just spec sheets.

This exact guitar, tagged as (048), is ready to ship from our Evansville shop. If you have been waiting on a Taylor that can cover solo acoustic gigs, band mixes, and home recording without compromise, this one hits that sweet spot.

The Lowdown

The Lowdown

We get it. Buying a guitar you haven’t played is a big decision. You need to know it’s going to feel right, sound right, and inspire you the second you open the case. We put together the questions we’d be asking if we were in your shoes—the real-world stuff that specs alone can’t answer. If there’s anything else you’re wondering about, just give us a call.

If you split your time between fingerstyle, rhythm work, and plugged in gigs, this guitar is right in your lane. The Legacy 514ce is for players who want a responsive, modern acoustic-electric that can handle solo sets, worship services, and studio work without feeling like a one trick pony. If you need one main acoustic that can cover a lot of ground, this is it.
The Grand Auditorium shape gives you the best of both worlds. It has more depth and richness than a smaller body, so chords sound full and three dimensional, but it stays tighter and more focused than a big dreadnought. That means better note separation, smoother mids, and a tone that records and sits in a mix with less EQ guesswork.
Yes. This is a true acoustic-electric, so it is designed to go straight into a PA, acoustic amp, or audio interface. The onboard system delivers a clear, controlled signal that keeps feedback manageable and lets your touch and dynamics come through. For worship teams, coffeehouse gigs, and songwriter rounds, you can just plug in and play with confidence.
Absolutely. Before it leaves our shop, this Legacy 514ce gets a full Player-Perfect setup so the action, relief, and intonation are dialed for real world playing. Open chords ring clean, barre chords are manageable, and up the neck intonation is checked. You open the case, tune up, and get straight to making music.
Of course. Every guitar gets our full Player-Perfect™ setup, but tell us your preferred string gauge and action at checkout, and we’ll dial it in exactly to your spec before it leaves the shop.
This guitar is covered by our 14-Day Return Policy. If you’re not completely inspired by it, just let us know. We’ll make it right.
If you order before 3 PM CST on a weekday, it ships the same day. We’ll get it into your hands fast with free, insured 2-3 day shipping.
Call us at (888) 794-8482. You’ll talk to a real musician who can answer anything you need to know.
