Taylor 214ce Cutaway Acoustic Guitar with Pickup - Spruce/Walnut

Under the hood, upgraded internal bracing dials up the guitar’s sonic horsepower to give the solid Sitka spruce top more dynamic range. Clean appointments include white binding, Italian acrylic dot inlays, a faux tortoise shell pickguard, an ebony peghead overlay, and satin-finish back and sides with a glossy top. Together with the onboard Taylor ES2 pickup and signature Taylor playability, this guitar delivers pro-grade stage appeal in every way. It also ships in our lightweight hardshell gig bag for easy transport. Taylor's signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic. An original Bob Taylor design introduced in 1994 Full in the lower register, present in the midrange, and sparkling on the treble strings Our most popular shape and a good place to begin your search Our most popular and versatile body shape, the mid-size Grand Auditorium arrived in 1994 bearing refined proportions that fell between a Dreadnought and Grand Concert. While the bigger Dreadnought was traditionally considered a flatpicker’s guitar and the smaller Grand Concert catered to fingerstylists, the GA was designed to deliver on both fronts. The shape produced an original acoustic voice that was big enough to handle medium-strength picking and strumming, yet with impressive balance across the tonal spectrum, especially in the midrange, producing clear, well-defined notes that suited both strumming and fingerstyle playing. The GA’s overall presence tracks well with other instruments both in a studio mix and on stage, and singer-songwriters have embraced its utility both for composing and traveling with one guitar. Many people want a single guitar that can cover a variety of styles, which is why the GA continues to be our bestselling shape. If you want a great all-purpose guitar, the multi-dimensional GA won’t let you down.   Specifications Scale Length: 25-1/2Nut & Saddle: Tusq Nut/Micarta SaddleBracing: Forward Shifted PatternTruss Rod Cover: Black PlasticPickguard: TortoiseNumber of Frets: 20Tuners: Chrome (100/200)Case: Hard BagBrand of Strings: Elixir Phosphor Bronze LightBody Length: 20Body Width: 16Body Depth: 4 5/8 BodyBinding/Edge Treatment: WhiteTop Finish: GlossBack Config: LayeredBackstrap Finish: NoneRosette Size: Three RingBridge Inlay: NoneBack/Side Finish: SatinArmrest Binding: NoneBackstrap Wood: NoneRosette Mat: PlasticStain/Sunburst: NoneWedge: NoneArmrest: no NeckNeck Width: 1-11/16Fretboard Inlay: 4mm Dot Italian AcrylicFretboard Binding/Edge Treatment: NoneHeel Cap Binding: WhiteType of Neck Joint: Taylor NeckNeck/Heel: SapeleFretboard Wood: EbonyNeck Finish: SatinHeel Length: 3-1/2   Watch Taylor 241ce Strum.
