214ce DLX
Taylor’s swiss army knife Grand Auditorium, with transparent-sounding ES2 expression system, full gloss finish and high-quality hard case. Striking visuals with a lush spruce top contrasting layered rosewood back and sides, this affordable workhorse has a body width and depth similar to that of a Dreadnought, however with contours that are more sympathetic to playing comfort – and a more balanced tonal response that makes it ideal for all playing styles. The now legendary slender and fast Taylor neck offers supreme playability and consistency of action right along the fretboard, and will be as at home on the stage as it is in the studio, or down at the beach.
GS Mini
A scaled-down GS that’s anything but small.
- Scaled-down Grand Symphony body
- Great for all playing styles
- Considered a modern-day parlor guitar
The award-winning GS Mini was designed to be the ultimate musical companion, wherever you go — or stay. Inspired by the big, bold sound of Taylor's GS body shape, the Mini scales things down without skimping on sound, packing a ton of tone into a comfortable travel size and giving you a guitar that's full-voiced and incredibly fun to play. Think of the Mini as a modern-day parlor guitar, perfect for playing around the house but also built to fit an active lifestyle.

Layered Sapele
Layered sapele, used for Taylor backs and sides, incorporates three layers of climate resilient wood, featuring a middle core of poplar with a striking outer veneer of Sapele. Though not as tonally complex as its solid-wood counterpart, layered sapele is a strong, stable body wood that ensures vibrant tone and long-lasting durability.
Sitka Spruce
Sitka Spruce is the most commonly used wood for guitar tops. Sitka generates a broad dynamic range and accommodates numerous playing styles from aggressive strumming to fingerpicking. As a guitar soundboard, Sitka spruce is the tonewood standard of the modern era. It’s used on 85-90 percent of the guitars that Taylor makes. Its combination of strength and elasticity translates into a broad dynamic range, yielding crisp articulation and allowing for everything from aggressive strumming and flatpicking to fingerpicking.
