Taylor 212ce - Spruce/Rosewood with Gig Bag

The Taylor 212ce: Comfortable Playability and Versatile Tone

Compact Design, Bold Sound

The Taylor 212ce pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with layered Indian rosewood back and sides, delivering a bold yet balanced tone. Its Grand Concert body shape is ideal for fingerstyle players and anyone seeking a smaller-bodied guitar with clear, articulate response. The Venetian cutaway enhances upper fret access, making it suitable for intricate playing styles and solo performances.

Premium Materials for Versatile Performance

The solid Sitka spruce top offers a broad dynamic range and accommodates a variety of playing styles, from light fingerpicking to more aggressive strumming. Indian rosewood, a classic tonewood, brings warmth and depth to the low end while maintaining clarity in the highs. Together, these materials create a rich tonal palette suitable for a wide range of genres.

Comfortable Playability

The slightly narrower 1-11/16" neck width and Taylor's signature slim neck profile make the 212ce exceptionally comfortable to play, even for extended sessions. The matte-finished Neo-Tropical mahogany neck and West African Crelicam ebony fretboard ensure smooth fretting and an effortless playing experience for guitarists of all skill levels.

Ready to Amplify with Expression System 2

The Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics faithfully capture the guitar's natural tone, offering a dynamic and responsive amplified sound. This behind-the-saddle pickup design ensures accurate reproduction of the guitar's acoustic properties, making it stage and studio-ready straight out of the box.
