Taylor 814ce-N Grand Auditorium Nylon-String

Sophisticated Nylon-String Expressiveness Meets Modern Playability

The Guitar Sanctuary is proud to offer the Taylor 814ce-N, a flagship Grand Auditorium nylon-string acoustic-electric that seamlessly bridges classical warmth with modern acoustic versatility. Designed for fingerstyle artists, studio pros, and steel-string players seeking an effortless transition into nylon-string performance, the 814ce-N delivers rich harmonic depth, exceptional balance, and effortless fretboard access.

Crafted with solid East Indian Rosewood back and sides paired with a solid Sitka Spruce top, the 814ce-N produces deep, resonant low-end authority combined with crisp, articulate treble response. The comfortable 1-7/8" nut width and fast neck profile offer traditional classical string spacing without sacrificing the familiar playability Taylor is famous for.

Onboard Taylor ES-N Electronics

Equipped with Taylor's specialized ES-N (Expression System Nylon) under-saddle pickup and custom-voiced preamp, the 814ce-N captures the natural acoustic resonance and dynamic touch of nylon strings when plugged into a PA, acoustic amplifier, or recording interface.

Sanctuary Expert Take:

"The 814ce-N is the ultimate crossover instrument. If you need rich, authentic nylon warmth for studio tracks or live worship sets without fighting traditional classical neck bulk, this is the benchmark guitar in Taylor's line."
