Perfectly Suited for the Studio and the Stage
The Taylor 214ce-K SB Plus is an eye-catching example of Taylor’s dedication to quality sound and unbeatable playing experience. It’s made with premium materials — a solid Sitka spruce top paired with layered koa back and sides. These two tonewoods combine to create a warm tone with detailed articulation and powerful projection. You’ll love the sleek feel of the mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard. Plus, the Grand Auditorium body has a comfortable Venetian cutaway, which gives you unrestricted access to the upper frets. And if you’re planning to play onstage, the onboard ES2 electronics will produce a natural, transparent, tone that’ll easily fit in almost any mix. The Taylor 214ce-K SB Plus will be a great gigging or studio guitar for the discerning guitarist.

Layered koa delivers a rich tone
For many players, there’s not a tonewood that’s more sought-after than Hawaiian koa. This prized tonewood delivers a rich tone with a sweet midrange response. With the 214ce-K SB Plus, Taylor offers you the chance to experience the sonic magic of koa without the prohibitive price tag. The layered construction sees multiple plies of koa married to an inner ply of highly resonant polar. Plus, layered tonewoods are ideal for areas with high levels of humidity and erratic temperatures.
Neo-tropical mahogany neck plays easily
Acoustic guitar players at Sweetwater agree that the hallmark of a good guitar is how well it plays. We’re pleased to report that the Taylor 214ce-K SB Plus’s neo-tropical mahogany neck feels at home in your hand. It sports a comfortable neck carve and a smooth-as-glass ebony fingerboard for quick, comfortable playing. We like the neck of 214ce-K SB Plus, and we feel confident that you will, too.
ES2 electronics accurately reproduce the acoustic character
For your plugged-in pleasure, the 214ce-K SB Plus comes loaded with Taylor’s well-loved ES2 electronics. This proprietary pickup system features three pickups located behind the saddle. This positioning allows the pickups to capture a more complete version of the sound. When you plug into your favorite acoustic amp for the first time, you’ll notice that your acoustic sounds clearer and more accurate than other guitars with under-saddle pickups. A trio of controls located on the upper bout helps you dial in your sound to fit perfectly into any arrangement.
