Description
This 200 Series Grand Auditorium combines the seamless feel of a slender neck and comfortable body curves with the aesthetic and musical sparkle of Hawaiian koa. Made with back and sides of layered koa and topped with solid Sitka spruce, the 214ce-K SB serves up a pleasing mix of top-end clarity and low-range warmth for a vibrant, expressive tone. A delicate balance of power and soft-touch responsiveness will impress players looking for an adaptable guitar that performs across styles and genres, making it an ideal choice for live performance, recording and songwriting sessions. This model comes detailed with an alluring matte sunburst finish that wraps around the top, back and sides, along with 4mm dot fretboard inlays, a Venetian cutaway, crisp white binding, a three-ring rosette and faux tortoiseshell pickguard. It ships with ES2 electronics in a lightweight, padded gig bag.
