TAYLOR 224ce Plus Special Edition Mahogany Top
Electro-Acoustic Guitar | Product code:
HN263658
Central Warehouse N/A
The front of the guitar is made of solid tropical mahogany, while the back and sides are made of plywood sapele. Glued to the mahogany neck is an ebony fingerboard fitted with twenty frets and positioned dots made of imitation mother-of-pearl. A subtle rounded lower body cutaway (Venetian Cutaway) facilitates touch-up at the higher positions of the fingerboard. The strings are held in nickel tuning machines and an ebony fingerboard. The stylish look of the instrument is accentuated by traditional elements in the form of a three-ring rosette, black body binding complemented by black and white lines and a black pickguard.
The sound pickup is handled by the Taylor Expression System 2. This is a completely unique pickup method that takes the possibilities of realistic sound reproduction to unprecedented proportions. Three specially designed independent piezoelectric pickups located behind the fingerboard are used for pickups. Unlike conventional pickups, they don't sense the up and down movement of the board, but the natural back and forth vibration of the grasshopper seat. This makes the sound much more natural, colourful and pleasing, and more responsive to the dynamics of your playing. At the same time, the new preamp makes the signal 25% stronger. Of course, feedback is eliminated and you can adjust the volume, bass and treble.
The instrument is supplied in aerocase.
The American company Taylor is famous for producing acoustic guitars that are very well crafted and offer top sound. The instruments in the 200 series are manufactured in the Tecate, Mexico factory, but that doesn't detract from the quality. Tecate is only a few dozen kilometres away from EL Cajon in California, so production is properly controlled.
