With its compact Grand Concert body and solid-wood top, the 212ce offers a remarkably comfortable, accommodating experience for players of all skill levels. Layered walnut back and sides and a solid torrefied spruce top generate plenty of projection for any musical application, with our special roasting process adding a touch of aged-in warmth and sweetness. The slightly shorter scale length of the Grand Concert shape, paired with the slender Taylor neck profile, make for a relaxed, intimate feel that's especially inviting to fingerstyle players while still offering enough power for flatpickers and strummers. And with the built-in ES2 electronics, you're guaranteed clear, faithful tone whenever you need to plug in.
