Once your instrument arrives, our in-house tech completes the full 23-point inspection and Trent photographs your actual unit before it ships, and we'll confirm everything with you at that point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Taylor Builder's Edition 814ce, Next Generation, Adirondack top pairs Adirondack spruce with Indian rosewood back and sides — the same pairing that built Taylor's reputation for rosewood clarity, upgraded with a top wood prized for a higher stiffness-to-weight ratio than Sitka. Scalloped V-Class Bracing with Relief Rout gives that stiffer top room to move without losing intonation, which is where Adirondack earns its reputation as a top wood that keeps opening up the harder it's played.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdirondack spruce carries more headroom than Sitka before it compresses, so a hard strum or an aggressive flatpicking attack doesn't flatten the tone the way it can on a softer top. Indian rosewood underneath adds the low-end depth and ringing overtones the 800 Series is built around, and together the pairing stays clear and articulate even when it's being driven hard — bluegrass rhythm players and heavy flatpickers get headroom they can actually use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilder's Edition appointments carry through: chamfered body edges, a beveled armrest and cutaway, gold Gotoh 510 tuners, a green abalone rosette around a bound sound hole, and a full-body gloss finish over the Natural top. Taylor's Claria pickup system adds a soundhole-mounted Mid-Contour control alongside volume and tone for direct control over the amplified midrange.
