Beautifully Designed Smaller Grand Concert from Taylor
One of Taylor’s most popular lines, the 912ce 12-fret offers players incredible tone, playability, and comfort. The 912ce features a smaller Grand Concert body style and 24-7/8" scale length with 12 frets that make it beautifully playable and travel-friendly. The 912ce begins with a solid Sitka spruce top and rosewood back and sides — a legendary tonewood pairing that produces stellar tone that is full, varied, and robust. A tropical mahogany neck with West African ebony fingerboard offers wonderful response and playability. To further ensure durability and enhanced tone, the 912ce 12-fret features Taylor’s V-Class bracing — a reinvention in bracing that affirms Taylor’s commitment to bringing guitarists the best playing experience possible. And with a new Radius Armrest contour, the 912ce is incredibly comfortable to play — a feature we really appreciate at Sweetwater.

V-Class bracing for incredible sustain and tone
The V-Class bracing on the 912ce represents Taylor’s commitment to exploring new approaches in design that improve tone, sustain, and durability. V-Class bracing is aimed at maximizing both the flexibility and stiffness of the 912ce’s top — the location of your guitar that is the center of its reverberation. With V-Class, the flexibility of the top is at its highest while stiffness along the middle of the guitar in the direction of the strings is optimized. Taken together, these two dynamics produce the 912ce’s incredible tone, sustain, and resonance. Hear the difference V-Class bracing makes when you strum this guitar!
Classic tonewood pairing for stellar tone
For decades, the pairing of spruce and rosewood has captivated guitarists of nearly all genres. The tone touches on all the ranges with a full low end that lets the high and mid ranges shine. Incredible appointments on the 912ce 12-fret include a West African ebony bridge, a Micarta saddle, black graphite nut, and ebony pins — each adding to and supporting the stellar tone of this incredible acoustic. And with a tropical mahogany neck and ebony fingerboard, the tone and playability of the 912ce are further expressed as you explore your own style. In addition, a deep venetian cutaway gives you incredible access up the neck for those higher notes and bold, creative chord shapes.
Taylor Expression System 2 electronics deliver superior sound onstage
The natural-sounding Taylor Expression System 2 electronics on board the 912ce have won over countless players here at Sweetwater. This system features a three-section proprietary pickup located behind the guitar’s saddle for clear and accurate sound reproduction. Discrete, contoured master volume and tone controls let you tweak your sound and output from the stage, and a phase switch helps you squelch feedback before it starts.
