212ce torrified spruce/walnut.
I’ve had my 212ce guitar for three months and have been playing it daily. It is a perfect size for me and is incredibly easy to play. It sounds great. Very happy with the guitar and it is the one I grab to play the most.

Well balanced sound. Enough projection without being “boomy”. Warm and sustaining.

Nice guitar
I like the light weight, balance, size and general sound and resonance of this. It is quite a playable guitar and came fairly well set up at the start. Plugged in sounds good. As far as guitars go it isn't particularly expensive. It's not fancy. It came with a nice backpacker semi hard case that is great for moving it about. I've been using it in my mobile tutoring work.
The only negative thing for me is that it is not holding tune particularly well so I am considering upgrading machineheads or looking into whether strings are binding at the nut.
Music is my job and it won't cut it live if doesn't stay in tune so well. I have other guitars that have proven to be great tools that work consistently well and stay in tune better. I'll be doing more live work later this year and next year and at this point I'm not confident that it is the best guitar for the job of live music.
