Taylor 214ce DLX Ziricote Special-Edition Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar Shaded Edge Burst

Combining a unique tonewood selection with their most popular body style, the Taylor 214ce DLX Ziricote Special-Edition acoustic-electric guitar is a player's dream. Whether you prefer delicate fingerpicking, aggressive single-note playing or simple strumming, you'll find the tone, the looks and the build quality you're looking for, as well as stunningly good looks in this stylish instrument.

A Taylor Original Body Style

First introduced in 1994 by Bob Taylor, the Grand Auditorium body style quickly became Taylor's most popular body style. The Grand Auditorium strikes a balance between the flatpicking-favorite dreadnought and fingerstyle-favored Grand Concert body styles. With a clear, articulate voice that maintains plenty of body, and that responds beautifully across the instrument's entire dynamic range, this body style is brought to a new level of looks with the stylish Venetian cutaway and sunburst finish, along with the carefully selected tonewoods found in the 214ce DLX Ziricote.

Innovative Electronics for Studio-Grade Tone Anywhere

The 214ce DLX Ziricote boasts Taylor's Expression System 2 (ES2) pickups and a custom "pro-audio-grade" preamp. This combination delivers a pristine, articulate and highly responsive amplified sound. The unique behind-the-saddle pickup design ensures that every nuance of vibration is captured, preserving the guitar's full dynamic range. Whether played through an amplifier or directly into a soundboard, the authentic tonal quality is faithfully reproduced. Conveniently located on the upper shoulder of the guitar, the user-friendly volume, active bass and treble controls are easily accessible.
