Taylor 214ce-K Grand Auditorium Acoustic Electric Guitar
With its remarkable versatility and effortless playability, the Taylor 214ce-K Grand Auditorium is an acoustic-electric guitar that feels right at home in any musical setting. It responds beautifully to delicate fingerpicking, powerful strumming, and articulate flatpicking, making it a true workhorse for the modern musician. Combining premium tonewoods, player-focused design, and world-class electronics, this guitar is built to inspire you whether you're on stage, in the studio, or writing your next song on the couch.
A Sonic Canvas for Every Style
The 214ce-K is engineered to be your go-to instrument, delivering a rich, dynamic voice that adapts to your playing style. It’s a guitar that doesn't just make sound; it makes a statement.
Grand Auditorium Body Shape: This is Taylor's signature body shape, celebrated for being the ultimate all-purpose guitar. It offers the perfect balance of volume, warmth, and articulation — big enough to handle robust strumming but contoured enough to make fingerstyle passages sparkle with clarity.
Solid Torrefied Sitka Spruce Top: Think of torrefaction as a time machine for wood. This process roasts the Sitka spruce top, giving it the sweet, responsive, and played-in character of a well-aged vintage instrument right out of the box. You get enhanced richness and sustain from your very first strum.
Layered Hawaiian Koa Back and Sides: Not only is Hawaiian Koa stunning to look at with its unique grain patterns, but it also produces a wonderfully focused tone. It blends the midrange warmth of mahogany with the top-end shimmer of maple, adding a touch of bright, tropical punch to your sound.
Playability: Feel the Difference
Taylor guitars are legendary for their comfortable feel, and the 214ce-K is a prime example of why. This instrument is designed to feel like an extension of your own hands, encouraging you to play longer and explore further.
Patented Taylor Neck: This isn't just any guitar neck; it's a game-changer. The slim, comfortable profile is perfect for players of all hand sizes, and its patented joint ensures perfect intonation and consistent action all the way up the fretboard. No more fighting the instrument — just pure, effortless playability.
Venetian Cutaway: The soft, rounded cutaway provides smooth access to the upper frets, inviting you to explore soaring solos and intricate melodies without restriction. It’s a graceful design choice that’s as functional as it is beautiful.
Solid Ebony Fingerboard: Known for its silky-smooth feel and durability, the ebony fingerboard provides a slick, fast playing surface. It also contributes to a crisp, clear attack, ensuring every note you play rings out with definition.
Ready for the Road and Recording
When it's time to plug in, the 214ce-K shines with its award-winning electronics, delivering a natural, authentic acoustic sound that will impress sound engineers and audiences alike.
Expression System 2 (ES2) Electronics: Taylor re-engineered the acoustic pickup with the ES2. Instead of placing the pickup under the saddle (which can result in a thin, brittle sound), the ES2 features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated sensors behind the saddle. This revolutionary design captures more of the guitar’s dynamic properties, translating its true acoustic voice into a warm, beautifully amplified tone.
Simple, Powerful Controls: With onboard controls for volume, bass, and treble, you can easily shape your sound on the fly. The controls are intuitive and effective, allowing you to dial in the perfect tone for any room or mix in seconds.
Ready for the Road: The 214ce-K ships in a sturdy, tan structured gig bag that offers excellent protection without the weight and bulk of a hardshell case. It’s the perfect companion for carrying your guitar to gigs, rehearsals, or wherever the music takes you.
Crafted For Versatility and Style
The Taylor 214ce-K is the ideal companion for your musical journey, combining stunning design, exceptional playability, and a versatile tone that will inspire you for years to come. Whether you’re strumming around the campfire, hitting the open mic, or rocking the stage, the 214ce-K will always be right there helping you sound your best.
