Details
Showcasing a stylish yet understated aesthetic, the 214ce Plus Special Edition, Trans Grey combines visual sophistication with musical versatility and silky-smooth playability. A solid Engelmann spruce top is paired with layered sapele back and sides in Taylor's comfortable cutaway Grand Auditorium body, finished with a rich gloss sheen. Sonically, this special-edition model yields a balanced tonal profile with bold, clear projection, making it ideal for a wide range of playing styles. Inside, cantilevered C-Class bracing delivers impressive volume, enhanced sustained and greater harmonic agreement between notes. The top boasts a dark, transparent grey finish while a black finish wraps the back, sides and slim, easy-playing Taylor neck, which features an accommodating 1 11/16” nut width. Satin black tuners and a black pickguard create an appealing visual contrast with an Italian acrylic rosette, white peghead logo and white body binding. Small Diamond fretboard inlays add touches of contemporary elegance. Outfitted with ES2 electronics for a natural amplified acoustic sound, the 214ce Plus Special Edition, Trans Grey comes in a lightweight, durable AeroCase.
