Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Taylor’s right-handed K22ce pairs a compact Grand Concert body with solid figured Hawaiian koa throughout and V-Class bracing. Its smaller body shape is voiced with controlled overtones and an articulate, chiming top end, leaving room around other instruments in a recording or live mix. The ES2 system brings behind-the-saddle pickup sensors, a phase switch, and onboard volume, bass, and treble controls for plugged-in work. A Venetian cutaway opens access to the upper frets, and the Taylor Deluxe Hard Shell Case is included for transport.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Fingerstyle and light-strumming parts that benefit from an articulate voice with top-end chime.
- Recording or live arrangements where controlled overtones leave room for other instruments.
- Players seeking a smaller-bodied Taylor for lap, couch, or physically comfortable playing.
