Each guitar in the Builder’s Edition family represents the peak of Taylor’s design philosophy: comfortable, inviting guitars with rich, robust tone and stunning aesthetics.

Builder's Edition 814ce
A Sinker Redwood top, beveled armrest and cutaway, and stunning gloss-finish body headline the evolution of our flagship Grand Auditorium guitar.

Refined Musicality
Builder’s Edition guitars are crafted to deliver exceptional tonal quality. Subtle modifications to body shapes, tone-enhancing interior bracing, top-tier tonewoods and other voicing tweaks add up to sophisticated, complex tone profiles that transcend the boundaries around genres, playing styles and musical applications.

Unmatched Playability
A guitar can only sound as good as it feels in the player’s hands. With innovative design elements such as beveled armrests, modified cutaways, chamfered edges and subtly altered neck profiles, Builder’s Edition guitars elevate the bond between musician and instrument.
