With its beautiful back and sides of layered Hawaiian koa, sunburst finish and solid-wood top, the 214ce-K SB Plus is a treat for both the eyes and ears. This versatile Grand Auditorium acoustic-electric features a solid top of torrefied spruce, seasoned by a special roasting process that adds an aged-in sweetness and warmth along with a rich voice with clear projection.

Our C-Class bracing architecture dials up louder volume, longer sustain and more low-end power, yielding a balanced musical character that makes this model a great choice for virtually any playing style or application, from flatpicking to fingerstyle and live performance to recording. Featuring an easy-playing neck, accommodating body shape and built-in ES2 electronics for easy amplification, the 214ce-K SB Plus is the total package for any type of player.
