Taylor 214ce Plus - Special Edition African Ziricote

This special-edition Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric guitar stands out with its stunning layered African ziricote back and sides, delivering not only eye-catching aesthetics but also a beautifully balanced tone. The solid torrefied Sitka spruce top offers powerful projection, enriched with the warmth and depth typically found in vintage instruments, thanks to the wood's unique roasting process. Enhanced internal bracing boosts volume, sustain, and low-end response, making this guitar as versatile in sound as it is in style.

The playability is top-notch with a slim neck profile and a slightly narrower 1-11/16-inch nut width, providing a comfortable grip for all types of players. Its design also includes striking visual features like white binding, a faux-pearl single-ring rosette, 4mm dot inlays on the fretboard, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, and a shaded edgeburst that completes its full-body gloss finish.

Equipped with ES2 electronics for crisp, clear tone when plugged in, this guitar comes with a hardshell case to ensure safe transport and storage, making it the perfect instrument for both live performance and at-home practice.
