Detail 01
Super Auditorium body
It is longer and has a wider lower bout than a Grand Auditorium.

Independent shopping perspective
In its Natural finish, the Gold Label 514e is a Super Auditorium acoustic-electric built around a torrefied Sitka spruce top, neo-tropical mahogany back and sides, and Fanned V-Class bracing. The larger shape is described as bringing deeper lows and more midrange presence while preserving definition. Its long-tenon Action Control neck joint is part of a design aimed at greater resonance and dynamic response. The LR Baggs Element VTC handles amplified use with only volume and tone controls, keeping the onboard workflow direct.
