Taylor 214EN Nylon String Acoustic Electric Guitar with Softshell Case with Gig Bag
Nylon string guitarists now get the best of both worlds with a traditional sounding instrument with modern features to suit today’s players. The Taylor 214-EN 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 laminated Rosewood.
The Taylor 214-EN Acoustic Electric Guitar also features their Grand Auditorium body style, which is a slightly smaller body that is similar to the classical body shape, yet delivers that huge tone. The 25.5” scale neck is carved from Tropical mahogany. 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 natural finish beautifully.
When it’s time to plug in and hit the stage, the Taylor 214-EN 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 214-EN is equally at home on stage, in studio, or the front porch. A Taylor softshell case is included.
