Taylor 812ce 12-Fret DLX Electro Acoustic Guitar

Taylor's 800 series of acoustics combine Rosewood and Spruce with a sweeping array of tone-enhancing refinements to offer you the very pinnacle of guitar construction. Every part of the guitar's material construction has been optimised to present you with the perfect type of musical celebration: a more inspiring playing experience!

A Serious Guitar for Serious Guitarists

This particular Taylor 800 series guitar is an 812ce 12-Fret DLX Electro Acoustic, a Grand Concert style guitar with a shorter scale length, Sitka Spruce top, Indian Rosewood back and sides, Adirondack spruce bracing, professional-grade electronics system, and even a deluxe hardshell case to keep it safe.

Exquisite Tonewoods

The Sitka Spruce / Indian Rosewood edition of this guitar offers a perfect balance between top end chime and mid-range consistency, and is frequently used by Taylor for their complementary tonal properties. It pairs really well with this Grand Concert body, and this should definitely be on the radar for country pick style players who need presence as part of an instrument mix or for recording applications.

12-Fret Construction

It's amazing to think that such a small adjustment in the set-up of the neck can make such a vast difference to the playability and tone of your guitar. The 812ce 12-fret is proof that Taylor's acute attention to detail and craftsmanship really allow you to find your perfect fit, and is certainly worth playing alongside the regular 812ce in your local PMT Store and see if this is the right one for you!
