New Taylor owner from Texas
« on: February 01, 2014, 02:27:12 PM »
Hi all,

I just recently got a 214ce DLX in natural finish.  Beautiful guitar that sounds great and fits my budget!

That is cool, Michael.

I originally bought a 214ce, but it had setup issues and it was very dry.  I exchanged up for the deluxe and it came pretty well perfect out of the box.

I think the thing I find the neatest about the deluxe is the color matched inside laminate, so it almost looks like a solid rosewood guitar.  Oh, and the hard case is a nice plus.
