FEATURES
Versatile Tone for Any Type of Player
Whatever your taste, playing style or level of ability, the 200 Series has plenty of options to satisfy your musical curiosity.
Solid-Top Tone in Many Flavors
200 Series guitars feature solid spruce tops (except the koa-topped 224ce-K DLX and 222ce-K DLX), which generate clear, dynamic acoustic tone with enough projection to perform with other musicians and in front of audiences. Choose from layered rosewood, maple or koa back and sides.
The Taylor Neck: Famous Comfort and Playability
With its slender profile and relaxed handfeel, the Taylor Neck makes for an inviting experience whether you're learning your first chords or playing your hundredth show. Need an action adjustment? A certified Taylor service tech can make it happen.
Expression System 2 Acoustic Pickup
All steel-string models in the 200 Series include our proprietary ES2 pickup and preamp unit for authentic plugged-in tone. Nylon-string models ship with the ES-N pickup, designed specifically for snappy nylon-string tone.
Variety in Visual Style
Standard appointments include a matte finish, 4mm dot inlays, white binding and a three-ring rosette. The 200 Plus models sport a full-body gloss finish with black binding, while Deluxe models feature Small Diamond fretboard inlays and polished bronze or gold tuners. Or, opt for an eye-catching look in black or red.
Explore 12-String and Nylon-String Sounds
The 200 Series is home to two 12-string models: the Grand Auditorium 254ce and the Dreadnought 250ce-BLK DLX. Players looking for that snappy nylon-string sound will appreciate the 214ce-N, which features a 1-7/8" neck for comfortable fingerstyle play.
Cases Included with Every Model
Every guitar in the 200 Series comes with a gig bag or case. Standard models ship with a structured gig bag, while Plus models include our lightweight, super-durable AeroCase. Deluxe models come with brown hardshell cases.
