And thanks to its small Grand Concert body style, the 512ce is also one of Taylor's most comfortable guitars.

Western red cedar and mahogany are a singer-songwriter's dream come true
If you want an acoustic guitar that takes a mild touch and provides a smooth and mellow tone, the Taylor 512ce is it! The combination of a slightly dark mahogany body with a lyrically warm Western red cedar top has been a combination of tonewoods favored by singer-songwriters throughout history. But you don't have to be a solo performer to fall in love with the 512ce's tone - its also a great for accompanying another guitarist playing a spruce-topped guitar.

Super-comfortable Grand Concert body style provides excellent tonal balance
Arguably Taylor's most comfortable body style, the 512ce's smaller than average Grand Concert shape is the perfect fit for anyone looking for a more manageable instrument. That makes the 512ce a particularly good fit if you're a finger-stylest or if you have shorter arms.

Renowned Taylor Expression System electronics
Designed to faithfully reproduce your guitar's native tone, the Taylor 512ce's Expression System uses patented Dynamic Sensors to capture both top and string vibration with incredible detail. The Taylor ES system was created in partnership with renowned audio pioneer Rupert Neve. Unlike standard onboard electronics, the Taylor Expression System is seamlessly integrated into the design of the 512ce from the ground up. Onboard tone controls provide added flavor, or can be set flat for an uncolored, exceptionally clean amplified sound.
