Its balance, warmth and articulation are great for fingerstyle, it has enough punch as a strummer to front a band, and the top-end power will fuel lead runs without getting shrill. It's a great choice for a gigging player looking for one guitar that can cover it all. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe revoicing of the 800 Series has brought greater warmth, a more mature midrange, and a looser, more luxurious low end to the 814ce, thanks in part to the customized bracing and a new, custom-calibrated Elixir HD Light string-gauge set. Premium appointments include maple binding and back strip, rosewood top edge trim, a rosewood pickguard, Taylor's new Element fretboard inlay in mother-of-pearl, a marbled fretboard, and new Expression System 2 acoustic electronics. The guitar features a Venetian cutaway and includes a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eGrand Auditorium\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe most versatile and popular of Taylor’s guitar shapes. Its well-defined midrange contributes to a clear and balanced tone. It’s responsive enough for fingerstyle players and powerful enough for pickers and strummers to get a lively response. Think of it as a jack of all trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSitka Spruce\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe most commonly used wood for guitar tops, Sitka generates a broad dynamic range and accommodates numerous playing styles, from aggressive strumming to fingerpicking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIndian Rosewood\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndian rosewood’s sweeping frequency range at both ends of the tonal spectrum has made it one of the most popular and musically rich tonewoods. Its deep lows can assert a throaty growl, while bright, sparkling treble notes ring out with bell-like, high-fidelity clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eEXPRESSION SYSTEM 2\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaylor’s breakthrough acoustic pickup marks a major advance in piezo technology thanks to a patented behind-the-saddle design. The unique placement of three piezo sensors captures a more dynamic range of acoustic sound and responds well in a variety of settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eVenetian\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eStandard on “ce” models in the 300 Series and up, the Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the guitar. The Grand Concert, Grand Auditorium, and Grand Symphony have a steeper slope, while the Dreadnought is a bit flatter. Our Grand Concert nylon-string models also feature a subtle, flatter slope, while our 100 and 200 Series cutaway models incorporate our flattest slope.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack\/Side Wood: Indian Rosewood\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eScale length: 25-1\/2\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eTop Wood: Sitka Spruce\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eBody Length: 20\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eElectronics: Expression System 2®\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eBody Width: 16\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eCutaway: Venetian\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eBody Depth: 4 3\/8\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\"\u003eNut \u0026amp;
