The Taylor 214ce Special Edition Honeyburst is a versatile acoustic-electric guitar that combines exceptional comfort, premium craftsmanship, and a striking visual aesthetic. Built around Taylor’s renowned Grand Auditorium body shape, this special-edition model offers the perfect balance of power, articulation, and responsiveness, making it an excellent choice for players across a wide range of musical styles.
Featuring a solid torrefied spruce top and layered Indian rosewood back and sides, the 214ce Honeyburst delivers a rich and balanced tonal character with impressive projection, sparkling highs, focused mids, and warm, resonant bass response. Taylor’s proprietary torrefaction process gives the spruce top a mature, played-in character, adding extra warmth, sweetness, and depth while preserving exceptional clarity and dynamic range.
The Grand Auditorium body shape remains Taylor’s most versatile design, equally at home with fingerstyle playing, strumming, flatpicking, and vocal accompaniment. Complementing its musical versatility is Taylor’s slim-profile neck, which features a slightly narrower-than-standard design to enhance comfort and facilitate smooth transitions across the fingerboard.
Aesthetically, the 214ce Special Edition Honeyburst stands out with its stunning Honey Sunburst top finish, accented by a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, chrome tuning machines, and elegant 4mm faux-pearl dot fretboard inlays. These refined details create a timeless appearance that complements the guitar’s premium sound and performance capabilities.
For amplified applications, Taylor’s acclaimed Expression System® 2 (ES2) electronics capture the instrument’s natural acoustic voice with remarkable accuracy and dynamic sensitivity. Whether you’re performing live, recording in the studio, or practicing through an acoustic amplifier, the ES2 system ensures professional-quality sound reproduction.
The guitar includes a durable Taylor Tan Structured Gig Bag, providing reliable protection while maintaining lightweight portability.
