The Taylor Next Generation 412ce brings a more refined, high-fidelity voice to Taylor’s updated Grand Concert platform. Built with a solid Sitka spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides, the 412ce delivers remarkable balance, clarity, and harmonic richness while maintaining the comfort and articulation that have made the Grand Concert body shape a favorite among fingerstyle players and recording musicians. Taylor’s new scalloped V-Class bracing opens the guitar up with greater warmth, sustain, and dynamic range, giving the 412ce a noticeably fuller and more responsive feel. The new long-tenon Action Control Neck improves resonance and allows fast, shimless action adjustments through the soundhole, while the all-new Claria Acoustic Pickup System offers a more natural amplified voice with intuitive sound shaping directly at the soundhole. With premium rosewood tone, modern Taylor innovation, and effortless playability, the Next Generation 412ce feels like a major evolution of one of Taylor’s most beloved body styles.
