Welcome aboard. Here's a supreme compliment: while playing your vid, my wife asked, "Is that Tommy Emmanuel?" (We saw him in concert about 10 days ago.)

Kudos!

Wohoo man that's actually very very nice to hear, thank you guys!!

And yeah, I aimed for the 114e 'cause I personally prefer acoustic guitars without the cutaway. Though it doesn't seem to me that the cutaway may affect the sound in a huge way.

Fedor,

I bought a 114e Rosewood 2017 model a few months back (yes they made a few Rosewood before they switched to walnut) and I love it. It played like butter right out of the box. I was also impressed by the ES2. I have a 2012 Taylor 816ce with the ES1 and do not care for the ES1 sound at all, but I find the ES2 in the 114e sounds great with my Fishman SA220 or Fishman Loudbox Mini. The 114e now sits out on a stand and I play it every day. Very happy with this purchase.

I used to be a little skeptical about the plastic sound that acoustic guitars may have when plugged. But the ES2 just nailed it.. So natural!

I totally agree.
I have a Taylor 110 and it has been great, my go-to guitar!
