Revolutionary V-Class Bracing Delivers Louder, Richer and More In-Tune Tone

Taylor’s innovative V-Class bracing is an acoustic guitar game-changer, acting as a sonic engine to optimize your instrument’s voice. This bracing boosts volume and sustain dramatically compared to traditional designs. But most impressively, it improves the guitar’s intonation, reducing sour notes and letting the 912ce play in tune all over the fingerboard. Chords ring out with pristine clarity as the bracing brings the guitar into greater harmonic alignment. Your Taylor 912ce is also easier to get perfectly in tune. So you can expect tremendous tonal power with exceptional purity.

Sleek Grand Concert Body Provides Focused and Balanced Acoustic Resonance

The 912ce uses Taylor’s compact Grand Concert body style for focused overtones that won’t overwhelm a mix. Despite its smaller proportions, it still delivers impressive projection and warmth. The 12-fret neck shifts the bridge back for enhanced midrange vibrancy. While the beveled cutaway grants comfortable access to the highest frets. The ergonomic contours make the 912ce feel natural in your hands. Allowing intimate musical expression. So the Grand Concert body provides an exquisitely responsive and resonant acoustic voice.

Highly Resonant Lutz Spruce Top and Indian Rosewood Back/Sides

Lutz spruce tops lend the 912ce a robust low-end, articulate mids and bright, airy overtones. Blending the best attributes of Sitka and Englemann spruce for dynamic complexity. The guitar’s Indian rosewood back and sides generate deep, punchy bass notes with sparkling treble tones. Together, these tone woods produce a broad tonal palette brimming with harmonic richness. From intricate fingerstyle playing to aggressive strumming, the 912ce’s Lutz spruce and rosewood combination shines.

ES2 Electronics Faithfully Amplify the Guitar’s Natural Acoustic Voice

Plugging into Taylor’s revolutionary ES2 electronics provides an amplifed acoustic tone of unrivaled authenticity. The system uses behind-the-saddle sensors to capture the 912ce’s true unplugged sound. While the professional-grade preamp grants comprehensive tonal shaping. Dialing in the ideal amplified voice for any venue. On stage or in studio, the ES2 electronics convey all the depth and dynamics of your Taylor. Letting the 912ce’s acoustic excellence shine through any speaker.
