Taylor 214ce Sunset Blvd Grand Auditorium Acoustic-Electric Guitar - Eclipse Burst

For more than six decades, Guitar Center’s Hollywood flagship on Sunset Boulevard has been a destination where working musicians, rising artists and legends have searched for the right instrument at the right moment. The Taylor 214ce Sunset Blvd Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar captures that spirit in a Guitar Center Exclusive built for everyday playing. A solid torrefied Sitka spruce top, layered rosewood back and sides and Taylor Expression System 2 electronics give this model the performance to match its story, while the Eclipse Burst finish provides a stunning visual. Designed for players moving between home, rehearsal room, stage and studio, this Grand Auditorium delivers the balanced response and dependable feel that have made Taylor’s 200 Series a trusted choice for all-purpose acoustic-electric performance.

Eclipse Burst Finish With Grand Auditorium Balance and Comfort

This 214ce's Eclipse Burst finish adds a dynamic look inspired by the night-time atmosphere of Sunset Boulevard while maintaining Taylor’s clean, understated design. Built on the Grand Auditorium body shape, the guitar offers the balance that has made this silhouette a favorite—enough projection for strumming, clarity for fingerstyle and a comfortable feel for extended sessions. Additionally, a Venetian cutaway provides easy access to upper frets, giving players greater flexibility across styles and settings.

Torrefied Sitka Spruce and Layered Rosewood for Warm, Articulate Tone

A solid torrefied Sitka spruce top delivers a quick, articulate response with added warmth and a subtly played-in character. Paired with layered rosewood back and sides, the guitar produces full lows, clear high end and the durability that benefits players who travel or move between changing environments. Together, these tonewoods create a balanced voice that remains responsive under a light touch while maintaining clarity when played with greater intensity.

C-Class Bracing and Taylor Neck Feel for Enhanced Projection and Playability

Taylor’s C-Class bracing enhances low-end presence, sustain and projection while maintaining the balance expected from a Grand Auditorium. This added depth gives the guitar more authority without sacrificing clarity. Combined with Taylor’s comfortable standard neck profile, matte neck finish and genuine West African ebony fingerboard, the playing feel remains smooth, fast and easy to navigate across the fretboard.

Expression System 2 Electronics for Articulate Amplified Tone

Taylor’s Expression System 2 electronics make this guitar equally capable on stage or in the studio. The behind-the-saddle design captures natural attack and resonance, while onboard volume, bass and treble controls allow quick adjustments across different setups. The result is an acoustic-electric voice that stays true to the guitar’s natural tone when amplified.

A Taylor Workhorse With a Guitar Center Exclusive Pedigree

Italian acrylic diamond inlays, satin black tuners, a custom Sunset Boulevard interior label and the included Taylor Structured Gig Bag add distinctive visual touches while supporting everyday practicality. Built to honor an iconic Guitar Center location while remaining versatile enough for working musicians, the Taylor 214ce Sunset Blvd Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar delivers balanced tone, comfortable playability and reliable amplified performance, complete with a stunning Eclipse Burst finish.
