The 114 and 214 are the same guitar essentially. Spruce top, Poplar back sides with a thin veneer of a different wood. Between the two, there is very little reason to pay more for the 200 series.

Either is still a fairly large guitar. Feels smaller than a dread due to the narrow waist when seated. I have a 314 which is one series higher. Good stage guitar. Overly bright when played unamplified.

The Dread Jr. is a Dreadnought shaped OM size guitar. Size wise it is the same as the Taylor "Big Baby". Warm and woody sounding. Not boomy like a full size dread. Short scale and very comfortable to play.
