Born With an Old Soul: Introducing the Gold Label Collection
Boasting a new body design, new neck joint, new bracing, and a new aesthetic. Taylor's Gold Label Collection reveals a stunning old-heritage sound that's unlike anything Taylor has ever produced.

Classic Tone Meets Performance-Enhancing Innovation
A new body shape, bracing design and neck joint add up to a powerful, deep, open sound, blending inspiration from vintage acoustic guitars with signature Taylor innovation.

Crafted with a Golden Tone…
The new Super Auditorium body shape, a long-tenon neck joint, fanned V-Class bracing and top-tier tonewoods add up to exceptional power and depth with the unmatched volume, sustain and pitch accuracy you’d expect from a modern Taylor guitar.

…Born with an Old Soul.
The Gold Label Collection draws inspiration from flattop acoustic guitars from the 1930s and ’40s, whose warm, woody sound and open, sweet character came to define generations of music.

A New Recipe for an Old Voice
These guitars generate a lush, warm sound that will remind players of the heritage instruments that first made acoustic guitars popular among music lovers. Built on our V-Class foundation, the new sound is a result of three design elements.

New Body Shape: The Super Auditorium
Similar to our Grand Auditorium, the new body is slightly longer with a wider lower bout, yielding improved low-end presence.

Gold Label Bracing
New Bracing: Fanned V-Class
A fan-like arrangement of braces attached with traditional hide glue produces more midrange richness and power.

Neck Joint
New Neck Joint: Long-Tenon
Enhanced wood coupling translates into greater low-end resonance with a glueless configuration that offers easy, precise adjustability.

This edition of our all-new Gold Label 814e adds a lustrous sunburst finish to match its seasoned, heritage-style sound and lush overtones. Featuring the new Super Auditorium body shape, this model boasts back and sides of Honduran rosewood, a torrefied Sitka spruce top and a fanned variant of our tone-boosting V-Class bracing architecture. The result is a sound with stunning warmth and richness, complemented with remarkable power and clarity even with the most aggressive attack. A new long-tenon neck joint improves sonic transfer for greater resonance while also offering even easier and more precise adjustability, letting you dial in the feel you need to sound your best. A suite of Continental inlays, grained ivoroid trim, a new pickguard, antique chrome Gotoh 510 tuners with ebony buttons, and a full-body gloss round out the package. This model includes LR Baggs Element VTC electronics with discrete soundhole-mounted controls, ensuring warm, rich sound when you need to plug in. The Gold Label 814e SB ships with a deluxe hardshell case featuring a stylish British Cocoa exterior.
