Product Description

Taylor's popular 200 Series boasts an array of stage-worthy guitars, showcasing premium performance features and high-end aesthetics. Featuring a satin finish solid Koa top and layered Koa back and sides, the Custom 224ce-K is a stunning Grand Auditorium with a host of player friendly features. Loaded with Taylor's legendary Expression System 2 electronics and with a deluxe hardshell case included, the Custom 224ce-K is ready to hit the road when you are!

Construction

The Custom 224ce-K features a solid Hawaiian Koa top and layered Koa back and sides for a warm, focussed tone with pleasant top-end chime. Boasting beautiful aesthetics, this exotic tonewood will appeal to fingerpickers and strummers alike. The standard carve neck is crafted from Tropical Mahogany and is topped with a sleek Crelicam Ebony fingerboard and elegant Italian Acrylic diamond inlays. The body and neck on the 224ce-K are both finished in a satin finish for a smooth and comfortable playability no matter how hot and humid the environment.

Expression System 2

Taylor's revolutionary Expression System 2 (ES-2) is built around a behind-the-saddle pickup which features three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The location of the sensors enables a more dynamic range of acoustic sound to be captured than ever before. The result is an extremely natural and transparent sound when amplified, meaning you'll hear more of the guitar's subtle nuances for a better all-round playing experience. With simple controls for volume, treble and bass, the ES-2 allows you to shape your tone with ease, whether you're on stage or in the studio.
