Taylor Guitars was founded in 1974 by Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, and has grown into the leading global builder of premium acoustic guitars. Renowned for blending modern, innovative manufacturing techniques with a master craftsman's attention to detail, Taylor acoustic guitars are widely considered among the best-sounding and easiest to play in the world, with Bob himself being known throughout the musical instrument industry as the visionary acoustic guitar manufacturer. One of the Legacy series, the 214ce-CF DLX is built with Taylor’s keen eye toward quality. The Grand Auditorium body shape yields a full, balanced voice, and is designed to be the ultimate all-purpose acoustic, enhanced in this case by a solid Sitka spruce top and deep-hued layered copafera back and sides. Taylor's Expression 2 System ensures the guitar's voice is perfectly reproduced when plugged in.
