Taylor Guitars Nylon-String Showdown: 214ce-N vs. 314ce-N vs. 814ce-N
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 мар 2022
- In this showdown, Aaron and Daniel delve into the unique sonic textures of the nylon-string sound with a comparison of three Taylor nylon-string models: the 214ce-N, with layered rosewood back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top; the 314ce-N, with solid sapele back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top, and the 814ce-N, with solid Indian rosewood back and sides and a solid Sitka spruce top. Rather than designing a traditional classical guitar, Taylor’s take on nylon-string design has been to bring the playability and modern amenities of its steel-string guitars into the nylon realm, which translates into slimmer, easier-to-play necks, a cutaway and onboard electronics for stage-ready nylon tone. In a strumming and fingerstyle comparison, Daniel showcases the warmth and rhythmic detail that make a nylon-string guitar an essential tonal flavor to expand a player’s musical palette.

I love my Taylor 214ce-N. Almost plays itself, such a natural feeling
No need to convince me, I bought an 814 two weeks ago, it‘s a wonderful instrument.
The 314 sounded better to me, with nylon I’m looking for a warm sound.
Great to see you giving a presence to the Nylon Guitars at last. I have the 412 ceN and love its playability, comfort and warm sound. I now prefer it to my previous steel string Taylors.
I would love to hear more models put through their paces.
Since a year I play on the 214 ce N. The value for money never disappoints; actually I play it more often than my more expensive steelstrings.
❤ Im planning on buying the 214
What do I think? This video was very helpful! …. Helpful for Taylor because now I want a nylon guitar.
I recently bought the 214 and it's the far best instrument I've had. Was used to cheaper classical guitars and when I finally tried the 214, the difference was profound, so I bought it and I love it
did you try the 314? I cant hear the diff...between the 214 314
@@factcheck5017 If you can't hear the difference that means that 214 is amazing for its price. 314 is $1200 more expensive.
I have an 814ce-n and an ns-64. Love both of the guitars.
Subtle differences that will cost you thousands. Check out the Academy 12-N. However, it seems the214 has the best $/sound relationship.
Cool demo - neat to see and hear these all side by side..,
WHAT ABOUT THE Taylor ACADEMY 12e-N ?!? It sounds great and it is more affordable!
Such a helpful video!
To me the 314 sounded the best for strumming and the 814 for fingering by a bit. But I don't think the sound difference between the 314 and 814 is worth the near $3000 difference in price in Canada. I am serious in deciding to get a 314CE-N, which would be the most expensive guitar I've ever played let alone owned. If I were good enough to be a talented amateur or professional, I would consider a higher level Taylor N.
No contest, 814ce-N every time!
I hear very little difference between these instruments, all are very nice. Does anyone know how a 212ce-N or 312ce-N would compare to a Cordoba Fusion model?
Thought headphones, to me, the 314 sounded most like a classical guitar. The 814 was a little much, maybe not a huge diversion from steel RW models. The 214 acoustically didn’t impress , but was better plugged in.
For fingerstyle, I had no doubt: the 824 was the clearest one. Now, for bossa nova, for example, that would be too brilliant, and I would prefer either the 214 or the 314. Thanks for the video. I just would like to hear how they would compare if they had a cedar top.
Great series of videos. Wondering if you might show off some Grand concert nylon-string models?
I love my 812 ce N 12 fret, it sounds just a tiny bit better than the 814 due to the location of the bridge.
Daniel Fraire is a master!
What’s the body width compared to steel string (thickness of body)?
This is Daniel Fraire de México, greeting from Colombia.
is a greath please enjoy this Taylor guitars. And i think that depends the way how every one plays . they fall in love to touch, to shape and sound. Taylor acoustic in nylon for me is the best.
I cannot find a video that has the electronic plugged in on the Taylor 214ce- N . Not encouraging .
He likes the 214, he is trying not to be bias😂
Thank you for your video! I would like to know why did you stop the 414ce-n, ovangkol is a lovely sounding wood. I own a 2002 NS-32 and remember the NS-42 I tried in a music shop which had a lovely sound too!
The 400 series are all rosewood now.
I recently ordered a Taylor 314ceN and will let you know what I think, I have not received it yet, Thanks for the video I find that all 3 have their qualities and of course, the budget, gets the last word
Let's hope the finish is better than mine. It was badly applied and I have white marks all down one side. Taylor customer service has been terrible. Disinterested is not the word...
@@laurencefox5884 wow that's quite astonishing..Thanks for your input I bought mine through Long and McQuade and I'm quite sure that if I'm not satisfied they will take care of the matter. Your dealer should have taken care of your complaint. Good luck
Finally I opted for a Godin Multiac Encore.
Sorry to hear about customer service I have a K-14 bought in 1998 that developed a small gap under the bridge a few years ago. Customer service was great. - hooked me up with a local luthier and paid for the repair. I had a N-74 I bought around 2004 Great sounding and playing guitar. I traded it to get a Gibson CS-369 electric - love the Gibson but miss the N-74. Very well built
I prefer the sound of the GT K21e over the GS mini. Better overall response and volume. Better lows. Andy did well with the GT series.
314 sounds beautiful
Going to buy the 214n great guitar for the money.
I picked up a 214 ce-N at Guitar center and was a bit disapointed. I absolutely LOVE the balance and sound but the neck needed to be set up and the action was so dam high it was unplayable. When paying over a grand for a guitar you would think that they would be made ready 2 play when put on the rack
All the Taylor that I've tried needed a shim reset from new. If you buy from an aproved repairer it will be done free for you, if not, problematic....
I agree. I did the same thing and thought, " HOW the heck can I even check it out with the neck so far out of whack"
That’s Guitar Center for you.
Nice sounding guitars!!
Pity you didn't include a Grand concert model in the mix.
hI! I need to know how Academy 12eN compares with the 212ceN. I can see different woods and preamp. It worth the difference of cost? And what is the difference in sound? I have 1 classical guitar and 1 flamenco spanish handmade guitar, but I need some with preamp..
Do you have a 12 fret model. 14 fret with 1 7/8 is big for smaller folks.
Nice guitars. Unique!
I love the 214 tone the most it had that Spanish guitar sound 7:44
I have an 814 ce-N and it is handsome beast. It has absolutely beautiful acoustics, but the electronics have piezo quack that is difficult to EQ out. Love the guitar... love, love ,love. The electronics; not so much. Too much work to get it right.
Hello folks, what is the mic used for recording ?
Do these guitars use transducer pick up?
Are there Classical Guitar Virtuosos who HAVE Really put to the ULTIMATATE TEST of what these Classical Taylor Guitars can DO?
Awesome.....
♥️♥️♥️♥️
Daniel Fraire, ex guitarrista de Jesus Adrian Romero. Todo un crack.
Will there be a 912ce-N?
Nylon strings are supposed to have Cedar tops. Taylor tf?
I didn't like the sound of the 814 as much, it's obvious the price reflects mainly the asthetics of the build....
Me sorprendes daniel...
I prefer.. 214ce is soft and i like 314ce....i think 🤔
With strumming I could not detect a big enough difference to justify the $$$ difference. With finger picking, I could hear the difference. But knowing the mic setup can change all that, I think you need to go play for yourself to judge fairly.
214 sounded more classical🤷🏽♂️my opinion
I love the quality and sound of Taylor guitars. But the dialog in this video just sounds like gibberish
Anyone else hate the side camera view of the presenter when he’s talking? It’s common practice, but it breaks the connection with the viewer and feels rude somehow. Look at ME please! Grrrr
I can never believe it’s actually intentional, lol… juvenile editing in some way.
I just bought a new Taylor Academy nylon string acoustic, absolutely awful action rendering it pretty much useless as a musical instrument. it's going back to the shop for a refund. I do hope they're not all like this!
love thi 214 & 314 BUT I cant STAND that guy slapping those strings. He beats on it like a trash can cover
Why spend so much money on Taylor nylon string, while you can buy a proper classical guitar instead. They all sound horrible
Mainly comfort. I could never really handle the size of a classical neck. This on the other hand is a very easy guitar to play.
You're right though, a good classical would have a lot more sustain which is my main complaint with my (10 year old) Taylor.
@@peterkossits4794 well it took awhile to get used to the classical neck, but it is easy, trust me. I am an Asian which have smaller hand compare to white people and I have no trouble using my thumb to press the E string like on acoustic guitar.
Both Martin and Taylor make terrible classical guitar, nothing like their acoustic counterpart. The only brand make good nylon and acoustic, is Yamaha. And they have the NTX series with 48cm nut width and I sm sure better than this, while much cheaper
@@phanhuyduc2395 I love Yamaha nylon string guitars. I have an Eterna ( lower budget ) ,but sounds great & is loud w/ good sustain. Then I have a 1980 G 250 s which is one of the top of the line guitars they made back then. The sound & the craftsmanship is really great. I agree - I'll stick with Yamaha. !
@@phanhuyduc2395 , I have a NTX 900, and it sings, not to loud , but can amplify and stays nylon accoustic sounding with the tone kept down to suit. Not much difference in price to the Taylor 214, would love to try a Taylor. Any crossover would take a bit of adjusting, but I love the nylon tone.
Indeed! Cordoba makes awesome guitars better than these at much lower costs. Heck, if it’s good enough for Tonino Baliardo from the Gipsy Kings, it’s surely almost good enough for most people. Plus, you can get awesome guitars at various price points that can appeal to most people.
