The Taylor 214CE Plus electro acoustic guitar takes the hugely popular 214ce model and upgrades with a selection of appointments, including an all gloss body finish, premium 18:1 nickel tuners and coming complete with the Taylor AeroCase. Whether on stage, in the studio or just playing at home, the 214CE Plus is an attractive choice for any guitar player.
The Taylor 214CE Plus is built using layered Indian rosewood for the back and sides and high quality solid Sitka spruce for the top. This classic tonewood combination delivers warm, punchy bass tones complimented by sparkling clear trebles, the perfect blend for a range of genres and playing styles.
Taylor have paired the body with a Tropical mahogany neck, topped with an ebony fretboard fitted with 20 frets. The headstock is finished off with an West African ebony headstock overlay featuring an inlaid Taylor logo. Tuning is kept solid with the addition of high quality, 18:1 nickel tuners.
Utilizing Taylor's best-selling Grand Auditorium body shape, with proportions that sit somewhere between a Dreadnought and the smaller Grand Concert, the Grand Auditorium is ideal for both finger picking and strumming styles. Add to this the 214CE's Venetian cutaway, and you have a guitar that is extremely popular with guitarists who want one guitar to cover multiple uses.
As featured on Taylor's higher end models, the 214ce Plus features Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics system. At the heart of the system is Taylor's behind the saddle pickup, which features three uniquely placed pickup sensors that in conjunction Taylor's custom designed professional audio grade preamp conveys the voice of the acoustic guitar whilst capturing more of the guitar's dynamic properties. Controls couldn't be simpler - volume, bass and treble.
Included with the 214CE Plus is Taylor's Aerocase, offering the durable protection of a hard case, but with the low weight and portability of a padded gigbag.
