- This is the incredible Taylor 814ce acoustic guitar, an all solid wood electro acoustic guitar with Expression 3 electronics and pickups system, with a solid sitka spruce top, Indian rosewood back and sides, a black tusq nut, tropical mahogany neck and a West African crelicam ebony fingerboard.
It's a truly exceptional acoustic guitar and was my dream acoustic guitar until i got the Taylor K24ce Builders edition, let me know your thoughts below.

I was never a Taylor guy but after playing the new 814ce I am sold ..bought one and love it
Incredible guitars! Thanks for the comment
I just bought 814CE today, I had to say 814ce is amazing Guitar . I dreamed about to own one sense I was in High School. I’m a surgeon now so I can afford 814CE😊
Nice!! They are an outstanding guitar! And congratulations!
too bad. They just came out with a new one last week! wait for it::::: the Builders Edition. For just $500 more!
@@gosman949should go with the 816ce Builders Edition
I got damaged frets,holes in the fingerboard, battery inside the guitar, GOTOCH 510 tuners and each one works differently and many other nonsense and Taylor is " SORRY"....then you have to be an idiot. Racism. I'm from Polish, so " you can".
Я не умею играть на гитаре. У меня нет музыкального слуха.
Но я купил себе Taylor 814ce.
Зачем?
Чтоб иногда доставать её из чехла, подержать в руках и, просто посмотреть.
Она своим видом доставляет мне огромное удовольствие.
Это очень красивая гитара❤
The 814 sound nice and I love your song selection! But, to compare the PRS Angelus (import model) at $700 to the Taylor 814ce at around $4,000 isn't exactly an apples to oranges. :) Thanks for the video!
Kid Neptune is a badass name btw
Beautiful guitar!
Thanks a lot!
Hi Derek, firstly a big thank you for another informative and indeed insightful demo. I have only ever owned one acoustic, my first ever, A Fender Gemini II which was a Christmas present from the present Mrs Poole. It was excellent and everyone who tried it really liked it but sadly, I sold it to fund my first electric. Big mistake as the aforementioned 'long suffering' (her' words), first reaction when I told her of the sacrifice I'd made was to ask (in a not very polite tone!), "what the hell did you do that for"?. To this day I have no idea, I guess I believed it was expected of me, whereas her interpretation was, and still is I expect, "I spent hours picking that for you". Women eh?
Anyway, years later, I was given tickets to a Taylor demo in Cardiff and the demonstrator was Doyle Dykes, a superb clinician and session player who must have demo'd 8-10 guitars and everyone of them sounded absolutely stellar. I had a look around afterwards and spoke to Doyle himself, who provided a really good resume of each model and I have to say that as a result, I've always held that ownership of a Taylor is on my bucket list so I'm not surprised that you find the 814CE so attractive, they really are a premier instrument from a construction, materials and tonal perspective. The only thing I have reservations about from your' demo and I think you made reference to it is the lack of 'top end' but I'm absolutely positive it would still pass my "Smoke on the water" audition 😊😏
Cheers mate.
Hey Gareth! Thanks for the amazing comment, I did also realise that when I play I damp a lot! Doesn’t make guitars ring out, I think it’s a control thing, if I don’t damp it it rings out all over the place, must learn some ‘ringing’ stuff, there is plenty of top end on it though :) I think that’s why I like Martin guitars as well, less top end and more rounded, but the Taylor guitars just have a sizzle to them which is addictive :) cheers!
I have the Taylor 814 CE and a Gibson J-45 and love them both and more so than my Martin D-28.
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
Admittedly I was never a big Taylor fan, but if I had to choose between the two you mentioned, I'd go for the latter as well. Cheers!
Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching!
You said ES3... Is this new from Taylor? I have only heard about the ES2. I'm not a Taylor guy but this one sounds great! Cool video.
I did! My mistake it’s the ES2 and thanks for the comment
Just nobody beats my base 214ce . 814ce is well built but sounds kinda choked up. =(
For the price, Furch are mellower (richer?) sounding, I just don’t get on with Furch necks though.
Was thinking about getting this guitar (even though I was torn between this & the K24ce Builder's Edition), but with the sunburst option...if that's actually possible in my local guitar shop lol
Wow both amazing guitars and you can’t go wrong with either, just hope your local shop has them lol
@@DerekPaulGuitar they have both! But the sunburst option for the 814ce I haven’t seen on their website or in person…so I guess I just have to ask them for that special request
Yes probably, after having the opportunity to play both it’ll be a tough choice and will come down to how it sounds to your ears I think
Untimely video. Last week they came out with a Builder's Edition! For just a few hundred $ more!!
Oh wow! That sounds like a bit of a bargain! Thanks for watching
I played both of those today. I bought the 814 C Rosewood. I played the builders edition but the 814 sounds better to me and look better.
I have seven Taylor guitars and a Martin D-28 1980 year, Gibson J-45 and EpiphoneDove,My Taylor guitars i love 614 ce,614ce builders edition SB,814ce DLX V Brace,816 ce,,K-24 ce,914ce,Baby Taylor.Ive many guitars and Taylor is my all time favorite in acoustic guitars.
Thanks for the comment! Loving my Taylor K24ce
Great review and playing! I played this recently and it felt awesome, a bit lower volume unplugged than I expected tho...but still amazing. I'm currently updating our best Taylor guitars article, would you be interested in giving us a short email interview on your thoughts on Taylor 814ce? I would love to feature that and this video of yours on our site. - Teemu
Great guitar,I find it gets to wild when hard stumming
it’s a great guitar.. but I prefer the 614ce; maple is the ultimate Taylor tone and body size / shape imo
Thanks for watching and for the comment!
Did you maybe try 724ce all koa? How is it in comparison with 814ce and K24?
I haven’t tried one yet, but if I do ill let you know, cheers!
I just tried the 814ce and K24ce Builders edition today in store. They are both absolutely great to play, they were so easy to play and sounded great.
The 814ce was really smooth on the neck and gave a nice bright and warm tone.
Also the K24ce koa in the store sounded alright.. the wood hasn't opened up yet, so the warm sound wasn't there for me, but in a few months or years it will open up.
I own a 724ce koa and if I were to compare the three, I'd say the 814ce is more smoother on the neck, K24ce is warmer whereas the 724ce koa is a little thicker and "has a bit more resistance to it, which is not really a bad thing.
@@nixinity3267 Thanks for feedback :D Since then I tried all of them in the store aswell. Firstly I bought 722ce, but after that I met Furch Red.... And bought Red Deluxe on the end of the day, just got luck for additional 20% off :)
I would say its closely comparable with 814ce, but a bit another tone, which I just liked more.
Just purchased the 814 CE today!! it’s absolutely amazing sound wise and aesthetically
Amazing guitars! In every way, thanks for the comment
TAYLOR?...SHIT!!!!!!
I no longer buy a high end Taylor with V - class bracing it’s just sound thin , trebly, not balance. I prefer the older Taylor with x bracing.
K24ce better than the Taylor 814ce 😂
Had one really didn't like it. One of the most uncomfortable guitars to play. Gave it away.
