Product Description
The Taylor 214ce Special Edition Honeyburst is a versatile, stage-ready electro acoustic that blends Taylor’s trademark playability with a warm, responsive voice and a striking sunburst finish. With a torrefied solid spruce top, layered walnut back and sides and Taylor’s Expression System 2 electronics, it is equally at home on the sofa, in the studio or under the stage lights.
Centred around Taylor’s hugely popular Grand Auditorium body shape, this special edition delivers a clear, balanced sound that works brilliantly for fingerstyle, flatpicking and strumming alike. The comfortable neck, Venetian cutaway and sleek matte finish invite long playing sessions, while the Honey Sunburst top and tasteful appointments give it a premium, contemporary look that will turn heads wherever you play.
Grand Auditorium Versatility
The 214ce Special Edition Honeyburst uses Taylor’s Grand Auditorium body, a do-it-all shape that offers a focused low end, clear mids and sparkling highs. This balance makes it ideal if you play a mix of styles, from delicate fingerpicking to more aggressive strumming, and want one guitar that can confidently cover rehearsals, gigs and recording sessions.
Torrefied Spruce Top for Enhanced Tone
A solid torrefied spruce top sits at the heart of this guitar’s sound. The torrefaction process gently “roasts” the wood, helping it respond more like a well-played-in instrument with added warmth, depth and responsiveness. You get a clear, punchy midrange that cuts through a mix, along with a more open, mature character that rewards dynamic playing.
Layered Walnut Back and Sides
The layered walnut back and sides provide a stable, reliable platform for the torrefied spruce top while contributing a pleasingly balanced tonal profile. This construction offers strength and resilience for life on the move, helping the guitar handle changes in environment while still delivering a consistent, musical voice night after night.
Comfortable Neck and Premium Feel
A Neo-Tropical mahogany neck with a West African Crelicam ebony fretboard offers a smooth, fast playing surface that feels instantly familiar. The standard carve profile, slightly narrower 1 11/16 inch nut width and satin-style matte finish all combine to reduce hand fatigue and make chords, scales and extended sets feel effortless.
Stage Ready with ES2 Electronics
Taylor’s Expression System 2 electronics are onboard, giving you a natural, dynamic amplified sound when you plug in. The behind-the-saddle pickup design captures more of the guitar’s acoustic character, so your live tone remains clear and expressive, whether you are playing through a PA, acoustic amp or into an audio interface.
Features
- Grand Auditorium Body Shape - The Grand Auditorium design delivers a balanced tonal response with enough low-end presence for strumming and plenty of clarity for fingerstyle. It is a superb all-rounder, ideal if you need one guitar that can adapt to different genres, ensembles and performance situations.
- Torrefied Solid Spruce Top - The torrefied spruce top offers the projection and definition spruce is known for, with added warmth and a more played-in feel. This means a responsive, expressive instrument straight out of the case, with a tone that encourages dynamic, nuanced playing.
- Expression System 2 Electronics - Taylor’s ES2 pickup and preamp provide a clear, natural amplified sound that closely reflects the guitar’s acoustic voice. It is a plug-in-and-play solution for gigs, rehearsals and recording, helping you achieve a consistent, professional tone with minimal fuss.
- Honey Sunburst Finish and Quality Appointments - The Honey Sunburst top, white binding, faux tortoiseshell pickguard and faux pearl dot inlays give this model a distinctive, upmarket look. These details make the 214ce Special Edition Honeyburst as visually appealing as it is enjoyable to play, adding pride of ownership every time you pick it up.
