The heart of the ES2 system is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, featuring three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors. The new positioning enables the piezo pickup’s crystals to respond more naturally to the guitar’s energy as it is transferred through the saddle, with three pickup sensors installed behind the saddle, through the bridge, with three tiny Allen screws that calibrate the position of the sensors in relation to the saddle. Together with Taylor’s custom-designed preamp, this ES2 system produces exceptional amplified tone and responsiveness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScale Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 25-1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNut \u0026amp; Saddle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Nubone Nut\/Micarta Saddle\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBracing: \u003c\/strong\u003eForward Shifted Pattern\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTruss Rod Cover:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black Plastic\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePickguard:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tortoise\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Frets:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTuners: \u003c\/strong\u003eTaylor Gold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCase:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Deluxe Hardshell Brown\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Width: \u003c\/strong\u003e16\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBody Depth: \u003c\/strong\u003e4 5\/8\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBinding\/Edge Treatment: \u003c\/strong\u003eCream\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTop Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gloss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack Config:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-piece No Wedge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackstrap Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosette Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single Ring\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Inlay:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack\/Side Finish: \u003c\/strong\u003eGloss\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArmrest Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBackstrap Wood: \u003c\/strong\u003eNone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRosette Mat.:\u003c\/strong\u003e Italian Acrylic Fish Bones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStain\/Sunburst:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWedge: \u003c\/strong\u003eNone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArmrest:\u003c\/strong\u003e No\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Width: \u003c\/strong\u003e1-11\/16\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Inlay: \u003c\/strong\u003eSmall Diamonds\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Binding\/Edge Treatment:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeel Cap Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cream\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType of Neck Joint:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Neck\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck\/Heel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFretboard Wood: \u003c\/strong\u003eWest African Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeck Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeel Length:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3-1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Finish:\u003c\/strong\u003e Satin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Binding:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Type: \u003c\/strong\u003eStandard\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Purfling: \u003c\/strong\u003eNone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeadstock Overlay: \u003c\/strong\u003eWest African Ebony\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Inlay: \u003c\/strong\u003eNone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeghead Logo:\u003c\/strong\u003e Taylor Colorcore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBridge Pins:\u003c\/strong\u003e Black\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eButtons: \u003c\/strong\u003eGold\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFingerboard Ext:\u003c\/strong\u003e None\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEdge Trim: \u003c\/strong\u003eNone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Due to differences in wood grain, the item you receive may not exactly match the item in the photos.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52103860355318,"sku":"F200002111003290000-0351-2202283068-FD","price":203.92,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/4547\/1990\/files\/taylor-acoustic-guitars-om-and-auditorium-taylor-214ce-k-dlx-grand-auditorium-sitka-koa-taylor-214ce-k-dlx-grand-auditorium-sitka-koa-f200002111003290000-0351-2202283068-fd-1033389125.jpg?v=1793607860","url":"https:\/\/timbertone.store\/products\/taylor-214ce-k-dlx-grand-auditorium-sitkakoa-serial-2028730","provider":" TIMBER \u0026 TONE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
