All-black beauty with great tonewood combo for clear, balanced tone and high-quality Taylor electronics.
The Taylor 214ce-BLK DLX adds a touch of elegance to the stage-worthy 200 Series, blending premium appointments with Taylor's acclaimed build quality and sound. Crafted in Mexico, the Grand Auditorium 214ce-BLK DLX charms the eyes with its sleek black gloss finish, matching open-gear tuners and ebony fingerboard. Under the hood, the guitar pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with layered maple back and sides for Taylor's signature balanced and articulate tone. Plugging in reveals the guitar's amplified voice via Taylor's ES2 pickup system, which accurately captures the 214ce-BLK DLX's acoustic dynamics and nuanced resonance. The slim neck profile provides smooth playability, while the Venetian cutaway grants easy access to the upper frets. For the performer seeking refined esthetics and trusted Taylor acoustic tone and playability, the 214ce-BLK DLX delivers.
Sleek Black Gloss Finish for Stylish Aesthetic
Dressed in an elegant black gloss finish, the 214ce-BLK DLX makes a stylish statement on stage. The dark, lustrous look extends from the body to the neck, complemented by open-gear tuners in a matching black satin. White body binding and fingerboard inlays provide tasteful contrast. The refined esthetic gives the 214ce-BLK DLX strong visual appeal in addition to great sound and playability.
Sitka Spruce Top and Layered Maple Back and Sides for Balanced Tone
The 214ce-BLK DLX combines a solid Sitka spruce top with layered maple back and sides to produce Taylor's signature balanced and articulate tone. The spruce top provides crisp treble notes and volume, while the layered maple body and sides add warmth and definition. Together they create an evenly balanced acoustic voice that's versatile for various styles, from fingerpicking to strumming. The pairing also yields good projection, responding well when you dig into the strings.
Taylor ES2 Pickup System for Amplified Acoustic Tone
Plug in the 214ce-BLK DLX to reveal Taylor's ES2 pickup system, which accurately conveys the guitar's acoustic dynamics and resonance. ES2 uses three adjustable sensors positioned behind the saddle to capture a vibrant amplified tone. The pickup blends well with other instruments, making the 214ce-BLK DLX a great fit for performing live with a band. The onboard preamp features adjustable bass and treble controls for dialing in your amplified sound.
Comfortable Neck Profile With Ebony Fingerboard for Smooth Playability
The 214ce-BLK DLX features Taylor's smooth and comfortable neck profile that makes playing a breeze. It has a slim nut width of 1-11/16", ideal for players with smaller hands. The fingerboard is crafted from ebony, providing a fast feel and smooth string glide. Combined with Taylor's impeccable fretwork, the neck design makes it easy to play chords and riffs up and down the fingerboard with comfort.
Venetian Cutaway for Easy Upper Fret Access
The 214ce-BLK DLX utilizes a Venetian cutaway, giving you ample room to access the upper frets. The contoured cutaway allows your hand to easily reach the higher notes when soloing. It expands the guitar's range, letting you play beyond traditional acoustic limits.
