Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top - Figured Hawaiian Koa Back & Sides - Super Auditorium w/Fanned V-Class Bracing
Taylor Gold Label Collection | 814e Koa-SB - Sunburst Top
Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top - Figured Hawaiian Koa Back & Sides - Super Auditorium w/Fanned V-Class Bracing
The Taylor 814e Koa-SB Sunburst Top combines the beauty and tone of figured Hawaiian koa with a torrefied Sitka spruce top and a classic sunburst finish. Featuring a Super Auditorium body, Fanned V-Class bracing, and a long-tenon neck, it delivers a bright, focused, and resonant sound.
The Taylor 814e Koa-SB Sunburst Top is identical in its construction to the natural top Koa model, featuring figured Hawaiian koa back and sides and a torrefied Sitka spruce top. However, the addition of a sunburst finish gives this guitar a distinct visual appeal, evoking the classic aesthetics of vintage instruments.
Like its natural top counterpart, the 814e Koa-SB offers a bright, focused tone that matures over time, becoming richer and warmer. The torrefied Sitka spruce enhances the guitar's responsiveness and projection. The Super Auditorium body shape, Fanned V-Class bracing, and long-tenon neck joint work together to create a powerful, resonant sound with exceptional clarity and sustain.
The 814e Koa-SB also shares the same distinctive aesthetic appointments as the other Gold Label models, including a redesigned headstock, a unique pickguard, a Honduran rosewood Curve Wing bridge with bone bridge pins, and elegant "Continental" inlays. The sunburst finish enhances the beauty of the koa wood grain.
