Taylor Next Generation 512ce 12-Fret Acoustic Electric w/Case

Warm cedar-and-mahogany Grand Concert tone with an effortless 12-fret feel

The Taylor Next Generation 512ce 12-Fret pairs a Western Red cedar top with mahogany back and sides for a warm, intimate voice with focused mids, woody definition and exceptional touch sensitivity. Its compact Grand Concert body and 24-7/8-inch scale contribute a relaxed feel with lower string tension, making this model especially inviting for expressive fingerstyle, blues, roots music and singer-songwriter playing.

Features

Next Generation appointments include Taylor's Action Control Neck, Scalloped V-Class bracing and Claria System electronics. Cedar responds easily to a light touch with sweetness and nuance, while mahogany adds earthy character and clear midrange definition. A slotted peghead, green abalone rosette, faux tortoise pickguard and gloss body give the guitar a refined traditional look, while the included Taylor Deluxe Hardshell Case provides premium protection.
