I played a bunch of different Taylors, and the 114ce is the one that "spoke to me." So, kinda biased, but yes, I think it's a fine guitar. The 100 and 200 series have the ES-T pickup system as opposed to the ES in the 300 and higher series. It has laminated sides and back. Plays beautifully, sounds great. What's not to like?
I'd second the recommendation that you try different models and see what appeals to you.
Enjoy the search, then enjoy the guitar.
Best wishes,
