Introducing the Taylor 914ce Special Edition, a highly exclusive model (only 15 for Europe) crafted for acoustic guitar lovers seeking both exquisite craftsmanship and exceptional performance. This guitar features a stunning Sinker Redwood top complemented by intricate Cindy inlays, making it a truly unique take on this flagship model.
The Sinker Redwood soundboard originates from massive old-growth redwood logs recovered from Northern California rivers. These logs have rested underwater for over a century. The soundboards exhibit a rich spectrum of variegation, resulting from colours imparted by silt and mineral-rich water. Due to the age and size of these trees, they have a tight grain and cross-grain stiffness, producing a bold response with warm overtones akin to cedar on steroids.
The Cindy Inlays are intricate decorative elements:
- Origin: Longtime Taylor fans may recognise the Cindy inlay motif from Taylor's 900 Series guitars from years ago.
- Materials: These inlays feature a combination of beautiful materials mother-of-pearl and green abalone.
- Placement: You'll find beautiful Cindy inlays on the fretboard, peghead, and bridge of this special guitar.
- Artistry: The Cindy inlay suite adds a major touch of artistry and sophistication to the guitar's appearance, showcasing Taylor's dedication to detail and design.
Built with solid Indian Rosewood back and sides, and shaped in Taylor's versatile Grand Auditorium body style, the 914ce Special Edition incorporates a radius armrest for enhanced comfort during extended playing sessions.

Key specifications include a 1-3/4" nut width and a 25-1/2" scale length, providing ample room and balanced string tension for optimal playability across various musical styles. The instrument is equipped with Gotoh 510 Antique Gold tuning machines for precise tuning stability, and features elegant West African Crelicam Ebony binding along with Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing for enhanced sustain and resonance.
