2020 Taylor Builder's Edition 912ce
Summary: This 2020 Taylor Builder's Edition 912ce sports all-solid tonewoods and an array of comfort-focused touches that make it one of our most refined Grand Concert models. Indian rosewood back and sides team with a Lutz spruce top to produce rich overtones and a stunning balance of low-end presence, chime-like trebles and a slight scoop in the midrange that leaves room for vocals. The compact body offers an intimate feel along with strong definition between notes, making this a great option for fingerstyle players. V-Class bracing inside elevates the response with more volume and sustain, while the chamfered edges, beveled cutaway and armrest remove all barriers to a comfortable playing experience. Finally, the Silent Satin finish helps reduce noise from the player's movement.
