Taylor 214ce Plus Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Natural

Taylor's Expression System 2 delivers incredibly natural sound with full dynamics

Traditionally, acoustic-electric guitars have employed under-saddle piezo transducers, but Taylor has discovered a better way. Their revolutionary Expression System 2 uses a proprietary pickup behind the saddle. The pickup's three individually calibrated, precisely positioned piezo-electric sensors respond organically to the instrument's acoustic energy as it's transferred through the saddle. In concert with Taylor's custom-designed preamp (which delivers a 25% hotter signal), the result is a more natural acoustic sound with incredible dynamic range and responsiveness to your pick or finger attack.

Top-notch appointments and design

The 214ce Plus is outfitted with the kind of top-notch appointments and build details that have made Taylors much beloved by guitarists the world over. A Forward Shifted Pattern bracing provides stellar resonance support and ensures long life. A nubone nut and micarta saddle give the 214ce an extra "something" in every note and every chord. And the deep Venetian cutaway is smooth and makes accessing higher notes up the neck a breeze.
