Lefty Grand Auditorium That Can Cover Every Gig
If you’re a lefty who is tired of compromising, this 214ce-K finally puts you on equal footing. Big, open acoustic tone, stage ready electronics, and that effortless Taylor feel all come together in a super comfortable Grand Auditorium that will happily live on the couch, in the studio, and under stage lights.
Torrefied Spruce Top With Koa Glow
The solid torrefied spruce top is the secret sauce here. That special roasting process gives you the punch and clarity of fresh spruce with a sweet, aged in warmth that usually takes years of playing to unlock. Notes jump out with crisp attack, then bloom and hang in the air in a really musical way.
Layered Hawaiian koa back and sides add that glossy midrange and shimmering top end that koa fans love. It is articulate enough for fingerstyle, but has plenty of body when you dig in with a pick. The natural matte finish keeps reflections down under stage lights and lets the guitar feel broken in instead of plastic coated.
C Class Bracing For Power And Balance
Taylor’s C Class bracing with relief rout is designed to wake up the low end without killing the sparkle. You get a tighter, more focused bass response, longer sustain, and a wider dynamic range than traditional X bracing in this price range. Strum hard and it stays clear instead of turning into mush.
Real talk, this bracing makes the guitar feel louder and more alive under your right hand. You can play softly and get nuance, or lean in and it will keep up with a full band or a loud singer without folding.
Easy Playing Taylor Neck For Real World Musicians
The neo tropical mahogany neck with Taylor’s standard carve feels instantly familiar. It fills your hand enough to feel solid, but it never fights back when you are playing longer sets. The smooth matte finish keeps your hand from sticking, whether you are under hot stage lights or just practicing at home.
West African Crelicam ebony for the fingerboard and bridge keeps things fast and responsive under your fingers. Chords ring true all the way up the neck, and single notes have that snappy attack you want for lead lines and melodic fingerstyle. And of course, this one is built from the ground up as a true left handed instrument, not a flipped afterthought.
ES2 Electronics That Just Work On Stage
Taylor’s Expression System 2 is one of the few factory systems that really sounds like your guitar, just louder. The behind the saddle sensors pick up more of the top movement, so you get air, body, and wood in the plugged in tone instead of that thin, quacky piezo sound.
Dial in the onboard controls, hit your DI or acoustic amp, and you are basically ready to go. It takes pedals well, records cleanly, and makes this 214ce-K a legit grab and go gigging rig for coffee shops, churches, and full band stages.
Dialed In At Moore Guitars And Ready To Roll
This exact guitar is in our Evansville, Indiana shop right now, and the photos you see are of the actual instrument. Before it leaves, our techs give it the full Player Perfect setup, checking it three times so it shows up ready to make music, not a trip to the repair bench.
You are getting a lightweight, 4.6 pound lefty that ships fast in a Taylor Standard gig bag, with free 2 to 3 day shipping and our 14 day return window backing you up. If you have been waiting for a do it all left handed acoustic electric that feels as good as it sounds, this 214ce-K is absolutely in that sweet spot.
