The Taylor Guitars Legacy Collection: Recrafted to Reinspire
Throughout 2024, Taylor’s celebration of its milestone 50th anniversary has produced a steady stream of commemorative limited-edition model offerings across our entire guitar line, from the GS Mini to the Presentation Series. This fall, the festivities culminate with a special suite of five guitars that mark the debut of a separate historically inspired category: The Legacy Collection.
The collection honors Taylor’s flagship Grand Auditorium body style (which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year) with the cedar-top model that debuted in the ’90s — the mahogany/cedar 514ce. Fittingly, the Legacy Collection will make its debut on October 15, Taylor’s actual 50th anniversary.
The Design Approach: A Blend of Old and New
The GA shape originally debuted to celebrate Taylor’s 20th anniversary in 1994; it’s hard to overstate the impact it has had on Taylor’s trajectory and the music industry. Bob Taylor said, “When I think of the Grand Auditorium, it’s Bob Taylor’s guitar making all grown up.” It was a true Taylor original, marking Bob/Taylor’s evolution from inherited dread & jumbo shapes into something with a unique design identity. Bob: “The GA was the first shape where, after Larry [Breedlove] and I drew the shape of that we stood back and went, ‘Yeah, that’s pretty.’... That guitar helped us go forward.” “Engineers liked it. It was easy to mic. It was easy to get the tone. They were like, ‘If you want to get some work done, have that guitar in the studio, this is the guitar.”
Cedar was also a favored wood of many fingerstyle players, so with the 514ce, you had a really versatile tool for different types of playing. Combined with a Mahogany back and sides, the tone has a strong fundamental focus, with a woody character that blends well with other instruments.
