Product Info
* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The 14ce is a seriously versatile workhorse. The torrefied top gives it a surprisingly mature voice right out of the box, and the Fishmann pickup system is excellent for stage or recording. It’s a fantastic option for gigging singer-songwriters and players wanting a great-sounding, amplified guitar without a premium-priced tag.
