Taylor 712e 12-Fret Grand Concert V-Class Electro-Acoustic

Perfect for recording both solo and with other instruments, the 712e 12-Fret from Taylor boasts a broad and articulate tonal range, with excellent volume and sustain thanks to the new addition of V-Class bracing.

Tonally Advanced, Aesthetically Enhanced

As part of Taylors redesigned 700 series of guitars, the 712e 12-Fret consists of a smaller-bodied Grand Concert design with a shorter neck meeting it at the 12th fret, rather than the 14th - ideally suited for fingerstyle playing.

Meticulously crafted from a selection of premium quality woods, the 700 series has been subject to a complete tonal and aesthetic makeover - resulting in a more powerful voice with emphasis on the fundamental details that provide an overall 'rootsy' tonality to this elegant guitar.

Taylor 712e 12-Fret Grand Concert V-Class Features:

• Classic Grand Concert Shape with classic Non-Cutaway Design
• Indian Rosewood Body with a Lutz Spruce Top
• Expression System 2 Electronics to enhance performance dynamics
• V-Class Bracing improves sustain, volume and intonation
• Tropical Mahogany Neck, topped with an Ebony Fretboard
• Includes Deluxe Hard Shell Case

Earthy Yet Elegant Body

Taylors well-justified decision to have the neck meet the body at the 12th fret on the 712e means that the bridge position is shifted closer to the centre of the lower bout, resulting in a boost in both power and warm tones.

The Grand Concert body shape with the non-cutaway design choice mean that the earthy aesthetics perfectly compliment the rootsy tonality of the 712e 12-Fret.

V-Class Bracing

Carefully crafted with tone in mind, Taylor have included their revolutionary V-Class bracing inside the body of the 712e 12-Fret. Balancing the flexibility and stability of the Lutz Spruce top, the resulting properties are increased sustain, enhanced volume and immaculate intonation.

Combine these properties with the versatile Indian Rosewood back and sides and you have a recipe for a superbly clear sound.

Sophisticated Electronics

Thanks to Taylor's breakthrough Expression System 2 (ES2), the 712e 12-Fret can deliver immaculately detailed tone, even when plugged in.

Equipped with a behind-the-saddle pickup, the discrete location enables a more dynamic range of acoustic tones, amplified impeccably through Taylors custom-designed professional-grade preamp to faithfully convey the voice of your Taylor guitar through a PA, through an amplifier or directly into your recording software.
