Taylor 214CE-BLK Acoustic Electric Guitar with Gig Bag

Taylor 214CE-BLK Acoustic Electric Guitar with Gig Bag
The Taylor 214CE-BLK Acoustic Electric Guitar boasts a Sitka Spruce soundboard with Taylor’s “X” bracing and a gloss finish. Sitka Spruce grows in a coastal "pocket" from Northern California to Alaska. This dense, straight-grained wood has the highest strength and elasticity-to-weight ratio among available tonewoods, an attribute that makes it an ideal material not only for soundboards, but for internal bracing, as well. Sitka produces a slightly brighter tone than does Engelmann. The back and sides are constructed from Laminate Sapele.

The Taylor 214CE-BLK also features their Grand Auditorium body style, which is a slightly smaller body that is similar to the classic dreadnought shape of the 210 model, yet delivers that characteristic big dreadnought tone. The slim taper neck is carved from hard rock maple. You will love the ease and playability of the fast, thin profile of this neck and 20 fret ebony fingerboard.  White binding offsets the glossy black finish beautifully.

When it’s time to plug in and hit the stage, the Taylor 214EC-BLK features the Expression System Transducer, or ES-T™, is a single-source, under-saddle transducer with individual elements for each string. The ES-T has an onboard preamp and features a custom-voiced EQ with a simplified volume, bass, and treble control layout. The system is powered by a 9-volt battery, with a battery life LED power indicator. The pickup also has a Phase switch for feedback control, which is located on the preamp board inside the soundhole. The 214CE-BLK is equally at home on stage, in studio, or the front porch. A Taylor softshell case is included.
