Please refer to the photos provided for details.\u003cbr\u003e Other than that, there are some scratches and signs of use commensurate with its age, but there is no damage that would impair its playability.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Upon arrival at our store, the following overall inspection and adjustments are performed at our partner workshop.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - Refretting and re-gluing the bridge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This instrument boasts luxurious specifications befitting a high-end Taylor model, featuring a Sitka spruce top and Indian rosewood sides and back.\u003cbr\u003e The abalone top trim and beautiful fretboard inlays give it a luxurious look, which is another attractive feature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The body shape is Taylor's signature Grand Auditorium. It combines ease of handling with a rich tonal range, making it suitable for a wide range of playing styles, from fingerstyle to strumming. The sound, which is well-balanced from low to high frequencies, is very easy to use, and you can definitely feel the sparkle and quick attack that is characteristic of Taylor guitars.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Furthermore, this instrument features the Expression System (ES1), which predates the current model. Its unique structure utilizes a magnetic sensor inside the body, resulting in a more natural sound with a greater sense of airiness and resonance, distinct from the current ES2. It faithfully reproduces Taylor's characteristic delicate nuances even when using line output.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The main difference from the current 914ce is that, in addition to the pickup system, it uses the Forward Shifted CV Bracing that was specified at the time. While the current model has been changed to V-Class bracing, this instrument has the traditional Taylor responsiveness and a naturally cohesive sound. Furthermore, compared to recent models, it has a flashy and gorgeous feel with Cindy inlays on the fretboard and abalone decorations on the body top, making it a guitar that lets you enjoy the atmosphere unique to the early 2010s.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Unlike a brand new guitar, this one boasts a well-worn, mature sound that is truly appealing.\u003cbr\u003e This guitar is recommended not only for those who have been looking for a 914ce from the first ES era, but also for those who are looking for a Taylor sound that is different from current models.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eShape: Grand Auditorium\u003cbr\u003e Top: Solid Sitka Spruce\u003cbr\u003e Side \u0026amp; Back: Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003e Neck: Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003e Figerboard: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e Bridge: Ebony\u003cbr\u003e Scale: 648 mm\u003cbr\u003e Neck Width: 44.5 mm\u003cbr\u003e Bracing: CV bracing with relief rout\u003cbr\u003e Pick up: ES1\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Includes original hard case","brand":"TAYLOR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43247732424817,"sku":"858615","price":2999.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0638\/4173\/0673\/files\/USED__914ce_12_ES1_Taylor_01.jpg?v=1778913777","url":"https:\/\/global.ikebe-gakki.com\/ko\/products\/858615","provider":"Ikebe Musical Instruments Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
