【used】Taylor / 214ce-SB DLX 2022 2.165㎏ #2205201469【TONIQ横浜】

Taylor stands alongside Martin as a world-leading giant in the acoustic guitar industry.
It is favored by numerous artists including Christopher Cross, Tony Iommi, John Petrucci, and MIYAVI.

Taylor continues to craft innovative guitars by combining cutting-edge technology with master craftsmanship, achieving the distinction of being the top-selling acoustic guitar brand in the United States in 2014.

While standard acoustic guitars typically use a set neck joint, Taylor guitars feature a detachable design called the NT (New Technology) neck joint.

Furthermore, a wooden spacer called a shim is inserted between the body and neck. By changing the shim thickness, the truss rod angle can be adjusted.

This allows lowering the string height without shaving the bridge saddle.

Beyond this, Taylor's appeal lies in incorporating numerous innovative ideas, such as UV finishes that resist aging, are durable, and allow for thin coatings, and proprietary pickup systems designed to naturally project the guitar's inherent resonance.

This model is the flagship 214.

The body top is Sitka Spruce, while the sides and back are Layered Rosewood.

The top features a glossy Sunburst finish, complemented by a tortoiseshell-patterned pickguard for a sophisticated look.

The neck is Tropical Mahogany, paired with an Ebony fingerboard.

Electronics feature the Expression System 2 (ES-2), found in Taylor's higher-end models.

Instead of placing piezo elements under the bridge saddle, sensors are arranged behind it, allowing the guitar's natural resonance to be captured authentically.

This proves invaluable when plugging into an amp for loud performances.

It's a highly recommended choice, whether as your first serious acoustic or as a ready-to-use live guitar.

Why not take advantage of this opportunity?

Approximately 80% of the frets remain.
