Inspired by one of the most legendary music stores in the world, the Taylor 214ce DLX Sunset Blvd celebrates the vibrant history and creative energy of Los Angeles' iconic Sunset Boulevard. Available at Haggerty's Music, this special edition Grand Auditorium pairs Taylor's renowned craftsmanship with visual appointments that pay tribute to the famous Hollywood Guitar Center, where generations of legendary artists have found inspiration. Finished in a stunning Sepia Burst, accented by gold hardware and exclusive 50th Anniversary diamond inlays, this model blends classic style with the refined performance that has made Taylor one of the most respected names in modern acoustic guitars.

Built around Taylor's versatile Grand Auditorium body shape, the Sunset Blvd 214ce DLX delivers a voice that feels equally at home with delicate fingerstyle playing, energetic strumming, and everything in between. A solid torrefied Sitka spruce top provides the warmth and responsiveness of a naturally aged instrument, while layered Indian rosewood back and sides contribute rich overtones, balanced projection, and impressive clarity. Taylor's cantilevered V-Class bracing enhances sustain, volume, and pitch accuracy, creating a dynamic acoustic voice that responds beautifully whether you're practicing at home, recording in the studio, or performing live. The comfortable Standard Carve neck and Venetian cutaway offer effortless playability across the entire fingerboard, making this an inspiring companion for players of every skill level.

When it's time to plug in, Taylor's Expression System 2 electronics faithfully capture the guitar's natural character with remarkable warmth, articulation, and dynamic range. From singer-songwriters and worship musicians to gigging professionals and hobbyists, the 214ce DLX Sunset Blvd is ready for virtually any musical setting. Complete with a deluxe Taylor hardshell case for premium protection, this special edition combines exclusive aesthetics, exceptional versatility, and the dependable craftsmanship that has become synonymous with the Taylor name.
