Taylor 214ce-K SB Plus Torrified Spruce / Koa - Sunburst

A true beauty with brains, the Taylor 214ce-K SB Plus is where refined craftsmanship meets modern tone shaping. With its torrefied spruce top and layered koa back and sides, this Grand Auditorium model delivers the kind of dynamic range and visual flair that turns heads before you even play a note.

That top? It’s not your everyday spruce. It’s been torrefied—a special roasting process that gives the wood a broken-in, aged character right out of the case. The result is a warm, responsive sound with extra clarity and sweetness in the highs, perfect for fingerstyle players and strummers alike. Paired with the rich visual grain of layered Hawaiian koa, you get a guitar that’s as pleasing to the eye as it is to the ear.

Thanks to Taylor’s C-Class bracing system, this 214ce-K SB Plus packs surprising low-end presence and sustain, giving it a depth of voice you wouldn’t expect from a guitar in this class. The Venetian cutaway makes upper fret access a breeze, and Taylor’s signature slim neck profile offers unbeatable comfort for extended playing sessions.

Plug it in and the Expression System® 2 electronics take centre stage, delivering a remarkably natural and articulate amplified tone. Whether you're busking on Grafton Street, recording in the home studio, or playing the Sunday session down the road, this guitar has the tonal integrity and stage-ready clarity to go the distance.

And of course, you’ll want to protect this stunner properly—so it comes in Taylor’s lightweight but rugged AeroCase, perfect for musicians on the move.

At Musicmaker, where we've been pairing Irish musicians with their dream guitars since the early 1980s, we know a future classic when we see one. This 214ce-K SB Plus is the full package.

Looking for a guitar that offers premium performance without premium price tag headaches? The 214ce-K SB Plus is ready to deliver.
