{"product_id":"taylor-builders-edition-514ce-next-generation","title":"Taylor Next Generation Builder's Edition 514ce","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Builder's Edition 514ce sets a solid Sitka spruce top on back and sides of Shamel ash, a wood Taylor sources through its urban wood program. Taylor hears a dry, woody midrange from it, with a strong fundamental and restrained overtones, and the scalloped V-Class bracing adds low end, open-string resonance and projection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Builder's Edition comfort package is all here, with chamfered edges, a bevelled armrest and a cutaway bevelled to match. The Action Control Neck lets you set the feel you want, and Claria electronics take care of the amplified side. Gotoh 510 tuners in antique chrome, Compass inlays and a firestripe pickguard dress it, with gloss on the body and satin on the neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt comes in Natural or Tobacco Kona Burst. The Natural is the one we'd point to if the ash grain is what drew you in, since it leaves both woods in full view. For the same ash back under a mahogany top, see the Builder's Edition 524ce. The Next Generation 514ce is the cedar-top 500 Series model, with mahogany back and sides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA\u003cbr\u003eBody Shape: Grand Auditorium\u003cbr\u003eCutaway: Beveled Cutaway\u003cbr\u003eBracing System: Scalloped V-Class Bracing with Relief Rout\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Strings: 6 String\u003cbr\u003eTop Wood: Spruce\u003cbr\u003eBack\/Side Wood: Shamel Ash\u003cbr\u003eRosette: Faux Pearl Single Ring\u003cbr\u003eBack Configuration: 2-piece or 4-piece Simons Wedge\u003cbr\u003eBody Binding: No Binding; Chamfered Edges\u003cbr\u003eArmrest: Beveled Neo-tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eTop Finish: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBack\/Side Finish: Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Wood: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Wood: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNeck Profile: Standard Carve\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Inlay: Faux Pearl Compass\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Binding: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1-3\/4\"\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Veneer Wood: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25-1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Inlay: Faux Pearl Compass\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Type: Paddle, Standard\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Binding: None\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Finish: Satin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElectronics: The Claria Acoustic Pickup System\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNut \u0026amp; Saddle: Black Tusq Nut, White Micarta Saddle\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pins: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eStrings: D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light (.012 - .053)\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Firestripe\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Gotoh 510 Antique Chrome with Antique Chrome Buttons\u003cbr\u003eStrap Pin: Black\u003cbr\u003eEnd Pin: Black\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCASE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCase\/Bag: Brown Taylor Deluxe Hard Shell Case\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Tobacco Kona Burst","offer_id":47769356927060,"sku":"A515002618407840259","price":4699.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Natural","offer_id":47769356959828,"sku":"A515002618407840195","price":4599.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/1220\/7188\/files\/Taylor-Builder-s-Edition-514ce-2026-Spec-1211195092-FrontLeft-2026_sq.jpg?v=1791348501","url":"https:\/\/lauzonmusic.com\/products\/taylor-builders-edition-514ce-next-generation","provider":"Lauzon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
