The Korena take
Taylor’s 214ce Plus Ziricote Special Edition is a right-handed, six-string Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric with a solid torrefied Sitka spruce top and layered ziricote back and sides. The Venetian cutaway opens access to the upper fret area, while the mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard support fretting and position changes. For amplified work, the Expression System 2 combines a behind-the-saddle transducer and preamp with volume, active bass, treble, and phase-switch controls. A Taylor Deluxe hardshell case is included.
Strong match
Who this is for
