No longer available at zZounds



zZounds Gear Experts Say...
The Taylor 214e offers great acoustic tone in a grand auditorium body. With a Solid Sitka Spruce top and ES-T electronics, the Taylor 214e sounds great.
Overview
The appealing tones and subtle nuances of a solid Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood laminate backs and sides are amplified with clarity and warmth, thanks to Taylor's Under-Saddle Transducer (UST) pickup.
A modestly priced, solid-wood guitar with tonal qualities and resonance approaching that of a premium acoustic guitar -- an incredible value.
Features
In the 200 Series, solid sapele adds depth to the sparkle of a Sitka top, filling in a full range of tonal possibilities.
Grand Auditorium -- Taylor's Grand Auditorium combines the width and depth of a dreadnought with a narrower waist. Its sleek design yields a strong treble zing across the tonal spectrum and sharpens the definition of individual notes. The Grand Auditorium is a strong finger-picking guitar that also adapts well to medium strumming.
Varnish -- A durable varnish finish offers protection, good looks, and a smooth feel to the touch. Available in natural finish.
