The TAYLOR 264ce-K DLX steel-string acoustic guitar is an exceptional choice for musicians looking for a high-quality acoustic-electric instrument. With its elegant design and premium materials, it offers an unparalleled playing experience.

Overview

The TAYLOR 264ce-K DLX is a Grand Auditorium-style 12-string steel-string acoustic guitar with a cutaway. Made in Mexico, it features a beautiful solid Hawaiian koa top, a laminated Hawaiian koa back and sides, a Neotropical mahogany neck, and a Crelicam ebony fingerboard, all while incorporating the Expression System ES2 preamp.

A Grand Auditorium body shape for optimal comfort

The Grand Auditorium body style, a Taylor proprietary design since 1994, combines elements of the Grand Concert and the Dreadnought. This more compact size offers superior ergonomics, making it comfortable to play while reducing feedback issues when amplified. Although its acoustic projection is slightly less pronounced, it facilitates higher-quality amplification.

Hawaiian Koa: A Precious Wood for a Rich Tone

Hawaiian koa, a tree native to the island of Hawaii, is a dense wood that combines rich mids with the brilliance of maple. Koa instruments improve with age, gaining warmth, smoothness, and openness. It’s an ideal choice for musicians seeking a sound that evolves over time.

Expression System ES2: A State-of-the-Art Preamp for Faithful Amplification

After years of research, Taylor developed the Expression System 2 Preamp, which faithfully reproduces the full range and character of acoustic guitars. Thanks to new pickups and a redesigned circuit, this system offers greater responsiveness and dynamics, with approximately 25% more warmth compared to the previous version.

A vibrant and balanced sound for all styles

The TAYLOR 264ce-K DLX stands out for its lively and punchy sound, with pronounced mids, clear highs, and resonant lows. This instrument showcases the expertise of Bob Taylor and his team, who deliver a high-quality guitar at an affordable price.
