Overview
454ce
Watch VideoFans of the 12-string sound and the overtone-rich voice of Indian rosewood are sure to be enticed by the 454ce, which boasts a gleaming gloss-finish body to complement its shimmering tone. This versatile Grand Auditorium features back and sides of Indian rosewood paired with a Sitka spruce top, delivering warm lows, clear trebles and a blooming overtone character. Inside, our V-Class bracing elevates the response with louder volume and longer sustain while improving pitch accuracy all the way up the neck. This acoustic-electric is appointed for the spotlight, featuring Finial inlays in the genuine ebony fretboard, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, crisp white binding and an agoya shell rosette. It includes ES2 electronics for faithful, clear plugged-in sound and ships with a deluxe hardshell case.
Features
Grand Auditorium
Our flagship shape offers comfort and cross-genre utility, with a clear, balanced tone suited for both fingerstyle and strumming.
Indian Rosewood
The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.
Spruce
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
Expression System® 2
The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
Venetian Cutaway
The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
V-Class Bracing
Our patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.

Taylor 454ce 12 string
I love my Tak 12 and the Taylor is the closest I can find to the sound of my 35 year old Tak. I even sold my Gibson Songwriter Special.
