Description
This Taylor 214ce Special Edition is an ideal pick for the intermediate to pro-level player who wants a do-it-all acoustic-electric without jumping into the high-end price tier. With its torrefied spruce top and layered Tigerwood back and sides, you're getting the balanced warmth of a broken-in guitar paired with a striking, striped aesthetic that stands out. It's got that signature Taylor clarity and responsiveness, but with a bit more low-end body and midrange warmth-perfect for everything from fingerstyle to strumming.
The Grand Auditorium body gives it a naturally versatile voice, and the solid top is enhanced with Taylor's C-Class bracing, which helps add sustain and projection without making it boomy. The ES2 electronics are simple and reliable, giving you a natural amplified tone with zero fuss. It's one of those guitars that can easily shift between home, studio, or stage without feeling like a compromise in any direction.
Playability is exactly what you'd expect from Taylor: smooth, comfortable, and easy on the hands. The satin-finished mahogany neck and 1-11/16" nut width make for a quick feel, while the Venetian cutaway gives you full fret access. The gold tuners, shaded edgeburst top, and included deluxe hardshell case round it out nicely. We've always seen the 214ce as one of the best value guitars in the shop, and this Special Edition run just raises the bar even more.
