12-string Taylor with the Warmth of Mahogany

Players who enjoy the slinky string feel of a shorter scale and comfortable shape of the Taylor Grand Concert body will feel right at home playing the 562ce 12-string. This Taylor acoustic-electric guitar is exceptionally rich sounding thanks to an all-mahogany design - top, back, sides, and neck - for fullness and balanced projection. An ebony wood fingerboard allows the Taylor 562ce to respond accurately to nuanced playing styles, while an onboard ES2 behind-saddle pickup system delivers clean, natural amplification for the stage and studio.

Taylor 562ce 12-string Grand Concert Acoustic-electric Guitar at a Glance:
  • Rich tone and looks from an all-mahogany design
  • Taylor Expression System 2 electronics deliver superior sound onstage
Rich tone and looks from an all-mahogany design

Mahogany is known for its rich harmonics, complex lows, and controlled midrange. The 562ce pairs an all-mahogany build with an ebony fretboard for enhanced note detail and attack to complement its mellow tonal signature. A dark stain gives the tropical mahogany top a moody look to match its complex sound.

Taylor Expression System 2 electronics deliver superior sound onstage

Artists who play plugged in will appreciate the natural-sounding Taylor Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics onboard the 562ce guitar. This system features a three-section proprietary pickup located behind the guitar's saddle for clear and accurate sound reproduction. A master volume control and a pair of tone controls let you tweak your sound and output from the stage, and a discreet phase switch helps you squelch feedback before it starts.

Taylor 562ce 12-string Grand Concert Acoustic-electric Guitar Features:
  • Clear and balanced tone
  • 12-string sound for folk, classic rock, and psychedelic music
  • Reduced body size and scale length for comfortable playability
  • Tropical mahogany top and body woods for warmth, balanced projection, and great looks
  • Ebony fretboard responds accurately to nuanced playing styles
  • Venetian cutaway for upper-fret access
  • ES2 behind-saddle pickup with balanced output for clean and natural amplification
