About This Guitar
The Taylor 512ce Next Generation 12-Fret pairs the compact dimensions of a Grand Concert body with a Western Red cedar top and neo-tropical mahogany back and sides. Its 12-fret neck joint and 24-7/8" scale length create a comfortable, intimate playing feel, while Taylor’s scalloped V-Class bracing with relief rout provides the structural foundation for a focused and responsive acoustic voice.
The Action Control Neck is built with neo-tropical mahogany and paired with a West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard, while the 1-3/4" nut width provides comfortable spacing for both fingerstyle and flatpicked playing. Refined details include a green abalone rosette, faux pearl Meridian fingerboard inlays, slot-head tuners with ebony buttons, and Taylor Claria electronics for amplified performance.
