    The sound seems incredible. There is no issue with laminate back and sides.

    Gorgeous guitar. Wish I could afford this.

    Don’t let the laminate back and sides fool you. I have a 2009 214ce that sounds incredible 👍🏻

      Amen Brother. My 214esb deluxe is my go to stage guitar recommended as such by Matt Chulka. I love the durability of the layered back and sides. And for $1199 the sound is very comparable to my Yairi Adirondack dreadnaught that I use for more intimate (safer) 😁 venues. 👍🏼❤️

      Agreed. The layered back and sides are all real wood. The inside and outside layers that you see through the soundhole and back/sides are about a 1mm layer of rosewood and the inner "core" between is about a 2mm layer of poplar. If you look at a cross-section it's a sandwich of 3 layers in all. No artificial "high pressure laminate" plastics or "printed" woods that other manufacturers use.

    I wish this was in a deluxe instead of plus. I think it should definitely come with a hard case at least!

    Does this get into J45 territory?

    Sounds great, but why is it NOBODY ever bothers to demo an acoustic/electric guitar plugged in? Don't you think customers might want to hear that? (Otherwise, why else would I be looking at an electric model at all?)

    I wasted a lot of money buying Taylor Guitars until I realized that Yamaha is a lot better and a lot cheaper at the same time! Taylor guitars are beautiful, that’s all!They always sound so thin! My first Taylor 214 sounded very metallic, it was just loud. I had some GS minis too and I can say that I only enjoyed the mahogany one. I own a Yamaha LL16 solid Rosewood with torrified Spruce top and I paid only $900 and oh man! What a full, sweet and gorgeous sound!!! This Taylor in the video sounds ok, but still very metallic due to laminate rosewood that doesn’t have the same full sound and powerful tone of solid rosewood. Taylor is so expensive and delivers so little! It’s a ripoff!

      Gilson, vi que você é brasileiro. Eu também sou. Você fala isso porque só experimentou modelos mais baratos da Taylor. Já tive mais de 15 Taylor’s, então acho que conheço bem a marca. Experimenta tocar num Taylor da linha 300 pra cima (todo sólido).
      Concordo que os violões da Yamaha (linha premium) são ótimos, mas, na minha opinião, Taylor é mais violão. Comparar um LL16 com um Taylor linha 200 (todo sólido x apenas tampo sólido) é complicado. Nesse caso eu também ficaria com o LL16. Resumindo, acho Taylor melhor, mas a Yamaha tem um excelente custo x benefício.

      @@diogoramos6228 rapaz eu tive outro Taylor 214 versão limitada Quilted Sapele com spruce top e aquele eu gostei muito do som, mas custou $1699 e não era um vilão todo solido, então no final foi caro por não ser solido. Mas eu vi que tem agora o Taylor 50th Anniversary 314ce que tem solid sapele back and sides, gostei muito, acha que vale a pena esse? Custa $2,799 dividido em 48x pela Stillwater. Eu achei muito bonito ele.
