Joining in on the Taylor Legacy Collection, the Taylor Legacy 914ce is a radiant ode to a classic model. Part of their Legacy Collection, this 914ce hearkens to Bob Taylor's earliest guitar designs with more traditionally-inspired features that capture Taylor's significant contributions to modern acoustic guitar design. For fans of the Taylor lineage, there's little like this 914ce.

Initially introduced in 2024 to cap off Taylor's fiftieth anniversary celebration, the Taylor Legacy Collection is a distinguished group of guitars. The Legacy 914ce enters the premium 900 Series with a suite of fine specifications. This all begins with a Taylor Grand Auditorium body brought together by an Engelmann spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides. A Venetian cutaway offers an added element of playability to higher registers while playing to the complex sonic palette of the two woods. The high-quality Engelmann spruce and Indian rosewood combine for a sparkling top end, a dense bass range, and a slight midrange scoop.

Accompanying these two tonewoods is a host of features for playability and aesthetics. Taylor incorporated their iconic mahogany neck in a contemporary profile to build in a more modern feel to this classically-inspired model. Playability is compounded by a West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard adorned with elegant, floral "Cindy" inlays – named after Bob Taylor's wife – and a traditional X-bracing pattern that balances the tonal output of the guitar in a way that predates Taylor's V-Class bracing pattern.

Aesthetically, this Legacy Collection entry comes to life with green abalone top purfling and rosette, gold hardware, and rosewood binding. Red-accented back and side purfling and a full-gloss finish elevates the total presentation of the body to a new level. In addition to all these aesthetic features, onboard L.R. Baggs Element VTC electronics seamlessly translate the sweet sounds of this Taylor to the stage. An accompanying Taylor deluxe brown hardshell case travels with this Legacy Collection model for easy moves from place to place.

From any vantage point, this Taylor is a marvelous guitar to encapsulate fifty years of a job well done.
