Taylor 956ce 12-string Acoustic-electric Guitar at a Glance:

• Grand Symphony body style: huge, balanced tone with articulation
  
• Renowned Taylor Expression System electronics
  
• Exceptional Taylor quality and playability

Grand Symphony body style: huge, balanced tone with articulation
Bob Taylor developed the Grand Symphony body style to push the sonic envelope (yet again). Deeper, fuller, and louder than a Grand Auditorium - or a Dreadnought, for that matter - the Taylor 956ce 12-string acoustic-electric guitar serves up sonorous, piano-esque lows, solid midrange, and confident treble. Whether strummed or flatpicked, the Taylor 956ce gives your notes articulation - even with a light attack. The Grand Symphony is a body style that means it.

Renowned Taylor Expression System electronics
Designed to faithfully reproduce the Taylor 956ce's native tone, the Taylor Expression System uses patented Dynamic Sensors to capture top and string vibration like never before. The Taylor ES system was created in partnership with renowned audio pioneer Rupert Neve - and the system is seamlessly integrated into the design of the guitar from the ground up. Onboard tone controls provide added flavor, or can be set flat for an uncolored, exceptionally clean amplified sound.

Exceptional Taylor quality and playability
There's nothing like a Taylor. Once you get your hands on the 956ce 12-string acoustic-electric guitar, you'll never want to play anything else! But, what is it that makes a Taylor acoustic so good? For starters, each Taylor is made out of premium tonewoods, for great sound that only gets better with age. You'll also love the easy playing neck. Even if you're primarily an electric player, you'll feel totally comfortable getting around on this neck. Another Taylor hallmark is their commitment to consistent quality and attention to detail - no flawed "built on a Friday afternoon" guitars here! From the innovative neck joint to the durable, top-notch finish, your Taylor is built to play and sound absolutely great, right from the moment you pick it up. Don't settle for less; treat yourself to a Taylor!
