This 214ce Walnut is a fantastic all-around guitar – the torrefied spruce gives it a warm, mature voice right out of the box. The walnut back and sides give it a focused tone that cuts through a mix, and the ES2 pickup is surprisingly natural when amplified. It’s a great choice for gigging left-handed players who want a versatile, premium-priced instrument without the absolute top-end price tag.

Frequently Asked Questions

Torrefaction simulates aging, resulting in a more open and responsive tone with slightly reduced stiffness and a quicker attack – it's immediately warmer and more 'played-in' than a standard top.
The ES2 is known for its natural amplified tone; the bass and treble controls offer subtle shaping without harshness, making it relatively easy to dial in a good sound for various performance situations.
Walnut delivers a tighter, more focused bass response and a brighter shimmer in the higher frequencies, offering a balanced tone that’s a bit different from the warmer tones of mahogany.
