The Taylor Custom Shop C12ce 12-Fret Grand Concert
From the moment you lay eyes on it, the Taylor Custom Shop C12ce 12-Fret Grand Concert commands attention. Combining a striking visual aesthetic with an intimate, highly expressive sonic personality, this right-handed masterpiece is built for musicians who demand nuance, comfort, and deep connection with their instrument.
Exquisite Tonewoods & Elegant Design
-
Dynamic Acoustic Voice: Built with a premium Lutz spruce top in a striking SEB Trans White gloss finish, the guitar delivers an expansive dynamic range. Supported by Advanced Performance X-Bracing, it offers exceptional projection, rich sustain, and pristine clarity whether you employ delicate fingerpicking or aggressive strumming.
-
Artisanal Craftsmanship: The back and sides feature a 4-piece Big Leaf maple configuration with a Simons wedge, producing a balanced, articulate tone with a tight, focused low end. Visually, the SEB Lilac Wine finish adds breathtaking depth, beautifully contrasted by figured Hawaiian koa binding and a matching backstrap. A single-ring paua rosette frames the soundhole for a touch of refined brilliance.
-
Effortless Playability: The 12-fret Grand Concert body and dramatic Florentine cutaway provide ultimate comfort. Its slightly shorter 24-7/8" scale length reduces string tension and brings your hands closer together, creating a warmer tone and an incredibly relaxed playing experience.
Premium Neck & Elite Hardware
The hard rock maple neck features a comfortable standard carve, topped with a flawless West African Crelicam ebony fingerboard. Custom spiked oval inlays crafted from paua and koa add a touch of artistic luxury under your fingertips. For long-term stability and precise setups, the instrument is engineered with Taylor's Action Control Neck system.
When it's time to plug in, the onboard Claria acoustic pickup system faithfully translates the guitar's natural, acoustic depth for the stage or studio. Rounding out this premium build are Gotoh 510 antique gold tuners, a bone-and-abalone bridge pin set, and D’Addario XS coated strings for maximum reliability.
Available Now: This exceptional custom creation includes a deluxe hardshell case and is available to experience firsthand at Haggerty’s Music.
