I've had a 2015 814ce ES2-equipped mode, also a 2013 K24ce ES1-equipped model but no more--all I have now is a 2016 614ce ES2.

I’ve never bought above the 600 level, but have always admired 814’s. I just never pulled the trigger on the expensive ones. Maybe my GS-K / K16 might be considered high end.

I bought a new one in 2014, kept it for a week, then returned it and bought an HD-28. I found the 814 lost energy and sparkle above the 5th fret. The HD-28 was magic. In my opinion.

Beautiful guitar! I thought about the sunburst when I bought mine a few months ago, but I feel uncomfortable buying a guitar that expensive without playing it live first. It was at Sweetwater. But boy-oh-boy yours looks lovely!
