Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Taylor’s 814ce-N is a right-handed, nylon-string Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric with a single cutaway and 20 frets. Its solid Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood back and sides are paired with redesigned bracing and wood thicknesses intended to bring forward a warm midrange and loose low end. For amplified work, the ES-N system uses three sensors and a custom preamp, with volume, bass, and treble controls onboard. The mahogany neck, ebony fretboard, 25.5-inch scale, and 1 7/8-inch nut width define its playing layout.
