The Taylor 210ce represents all that has made Taylor a trusted and sought-after instrument: impeccable design, fine appointments, and signature Taylor tone. This dreadnought acoustic-electric features a solid Sitka spruce top with layered Indian rosewood back and sides for a blending of full low end, crisp high end, and a balanced midrange. A mahogany neck with African ebony fingerboard offers incredible playability and response, and with a deep Venetian cutaway, you can easily access those higher notes up the fingerboard. To translate beautifully natural acoustic tone, the 210ce is equipped with ES2 electronics, a favorite among guitarists here at Music Experience.
The powerful voice and unrivaled projection of the traditional dreadnought body style has made it the choice of strummers and flatpickers throughout history. The naturally deep lows, crisp highs, and open, airy midrange of Taylor's dreadnought body help to balance the 210ce's tone across the full sonic spectrum. This gives you a sound that lends itself to traditional bluegrass and folk as well as it does to modern acoustic rock. If you're looking for a guitar that can handle aggressive picking and driving rhythms, you're going to love the Taylor 210ce acoustic-electric.
The 210ce is outfitted with the kind of top-notch appointments and build details that have made Taylors much beloved by guitarists the world over. A Forward Shifted Pattern bracing provides stellar resonance support and ensures long life. A nubone nut and micarta saddle give the 210ce an extra "something" in every note and every chord. The deep Venetian cutaway is smooth and makes accessing higher notes up the neck a breeze. And die-cast chrome tuners, white binding, and a satin finish add the final aesthetic touches.
Traditionally, acoustic-electric guitars have employed under-saddle piezo transducers, but Taylor has discovered a better way. Their revolutionary Expression System 2 uses a proprietary pickup behind the saddle. The pickup's three individually calibrated, precisely positioned piezo-electric sensors respond organically to the instrument's acoustic energy as it's transferred through the saddle. In concert with Taylor's custom-designed preamp (which delivers a 25% hotter signal), the result is a more natural acoustic sound with incredible dynamic range and responsiveness to your pick or finger attack.
Bridging the divide between premium tone and workhorse reliability, the 210ce is a Dreadnought that will please traditionalists while inspiring new players. Made with layered Indian rosewood back and sides with a solid Sitka spruce top, the 210ce’s large, rounded body produces a warm low end set off by articulate highs and a balanced response of musical colors up and down the neck. The solid top delivers punch and power enough to fill any room, making the 210ce a great choice not just for home practice and recording but out on stage at open mics and full band shows. A clean appointment package includes crisp white binding, a three-ring rosette, 4mm Dot fretboard inlays, ES2 electronics for faithful plugged-in tone, and a sturdy padded gig bag for easy transportation.
