A Mint-Condition Taylor with a Torrefied Top & Koa Soul
Here’s the deal—this isn’t just any Taylor 214ce. This is a pre-owned 214ce-K SB Plus in pristine, mint condition. We’re talking plastic-still-on-the-pickguard clean. It’s a fantastic opportunity to get into a premium Taylor with some serious tonal upgrades—like a torrefied spruce top and gorgeous layered koa back and sides—for a killer price. The Grand Auditorium body shape is Taylor’s Swiss Army knife, perfect for everything from delicate fingerstyle to hard strumming, and the Shaded Edgeburst finish is pure class.
Tone That’s Aged to Perfection
The magic starts with the top wood. Taylor uses a special roasting process called torrefaction on the solid Sitka spruce top. This doesn’t just look cool; it actually mimics the aging process of vintage guitars, giving you a warmer, sweeter, more responsive tone right from day one. Paired with layered Hawaiian koa back and sides, you get a sound that’s focused in the midrange with a beautiful top-end sparkle—and a stunning look that’s guaranteed to turn heads. Under the hood, Taylor’s C-Class bracing boosts the low-end response, adding surprising warmth and sustain for a guitar of this size.
Effortless Playability, Stage-Ready Sound
Every guitarist who picks up a Taylor for the first time says the same thing: “Wow, this neck.” The Neo-Tropical Mahogany neck has Taylor’s Standard Carve, a slim profile that feels comfortable and fast in any position. The Venetian cutaway gives you total access to the upper frets, and the onboard Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics deliver a beautifully authentic acoustic tone when you plug in. It’s a true plug-and-play workhorse for the stage or studio.
