Taylor 212ce Spruce Walnut

The Taylor 212ce brings together two tonewoods that give it a character of its own. The solid torrefied spruce top has been roasted so it responds like an aged, played-in top. That makes the guitar sound open and warm straight out of the box. The layered walnut back and sides add a woody midrange with a slightly darker voice than the usual sapele.

The Grand Concert body is compact and sits comfortably against you. Thanks to its smaller size, the guitar has a focused sound with clear note definition. That works especially well for fingerstyle and recording. Combined with the 24-7/8" scale length, the strings feel slightly slinkier. Bends and chord work are easier on the fingers as a result.

The neo-tropical mahogany neck has Taylor's Standard Carve profile and a smooth ebony fretboard. The Venetian cutaway gives you easy access to the upper frets. On stage, the Expression System 2 pickup faithfully captures the natural sound of the top. It comes with a Taylor structured gig bag.

This instrument has been carefully inspected for originality, condition and playability, then set up to our Gold Standard by a luthier. We make sure it arrives in your hands exactly as it should: sounding its best, playing effortlessly and ready to be enjoyed from the very first note.
