Details
This Builder's Edition K14ce was crafted in 2019 in Taylor's El Cajon, California facility. It's in excellent structural and very good condition with just a hint of fret wear. There are handful of minor scuffs here and there. There is one small ding in the top near the cutaway and ding in the side near the strap button. The back and sides of this instrument are made from solid koa, and the top is torrefied Sitka spruce, a combination that produces a remarkably well balanced tone with a subtle emphasis on the midrange and trebles.
As with most Builder’s Editions, this K14ce includes a beveled armrest, beveled body edge treatment, and a reshaped cutaway that flows smoothly into the heel and incorporates a finger bevel where the cutaway meets the soundboard. Other refined touches include “silent” satin finish, which helps quiet the incidental noise against the guitar body. The original hardshell case is in similar condition.
