Presenting the Taylor 214ce Plus Rosewood Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar, built in Taylor's own factory in Tecate Mexico.
From Taylor Guitars about this model:
"Whether you're an experienced player or a new learner, the 214ce Plus acoustic-electric guitar delivers a comfortable, inspiring experience for virtually any application. This Grand Auditorium model features a solid torrefied spruce top treated with a special roasting process that adds a mature, aged-in warmth and depth, yielding a bold, punchy midrange response. With plenty of projection for playing solo or with other musicians, the 214ce Plus is an ideal choice for working guitar players, while its relaxed, easy-playing neck makes it a great option for developing players. With special interior bracing to dial up more volume, sustain and low-end presence and onboard ES2 electronics for clear plugged-in tone, the 214ce Plus covers all the bases for every type of player."
Key Features about the 214CE Plus at a glance:
Grand Auditorium Body Shape: Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic, great for both flat-picking/strumming AND more intimate playing like fingerpicking. It is more comfortable when sitting down than a traditional Dreadnought size, but maintains a Dreadnought's depth to provide a fuller sound than smaller body guitars.
Layered Indian Rosewood Back and Sides: The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.
Torrefied Spruce Top: Treated with Taylor's special roasting process, torrefied spruce tops deliver all the clarity, balance and projection you’d expect from a traditional spruce top with an extra dash of warmth and played-in depth. The roasting process essentially pre-ages the top, giving you more of the voice of a guitar that's been played for decades even when it's brand new.
Expression System® 2 Electronics: The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
Venetian Cutaway: The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
Stock Factory Photos shown, individual grain and color will vary from guitar to guitar.
