Overview
512ce
The Taylor 512ce should be an enticing option for any guitar player, but especially fingerstyle players or those who want warmth and soft-touch responsiveness in the same package. Made with back and sides of mahogany with a Western Red cedar top, this compact Grand Concert model boasts a warm, woody musical personality with a bold midrange response, strong fundamental focus and minimal ringing overtones. Cedar's natural softness makes for a pleasingly rounded tone that's highly responsive to a light tough, making this a great option for players with a wide dynamic range. V-Class bracing pumps out more volume and sustain, and the included ES2 pickup provides natural-sounding live tone. It ships with a hardshell case.
“It is reassuring to note that a human armed with a chisel and old-fashioned ingenuity is capable of making waves—waves of both surf and sound, perhaps the biggest revolution in acoustic guitar architecture since the dawn of X-Bracing.”
Features
Tropical Mahogany
A midrange powerhouse. Mahogany is prized for balance and articulation, making it one of the best all-around tonewoods there is.
Western Red Cedar
A true performer for those with a lighter touch, cedar tops yield extra warmth and pair nicely with mahogany and rosewood.
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.
