Unlock your creative potential with Taylor's meticulously crafted 912ce acoustic-electric.

The Taylor 912ce Builder's Edition Grand Concert acoustic-electric guitar provides an unparalleled playing experience. Crafted from premium tonewoods and featuring innovative design appointments, this ultra-premium instrument delivers lush, resonant tone with impeccable playability. The Honduran rosewood back and sides are matched with a sinker redwood top, producing rich harmonics across the tonal spectrum. The V-Class bracing further enhances projection and sustain.

Premium Tonewoods for Resonant Sound

The 912ce Builder's Edition starts with rare, premium tonewoods to achieve a lush, complex tone profile. The Honduran rosewood back and sides provide warm lows, clear highs and rich overtones. The sinker redwood top adds a touch of warmth and sensitivity. Together, these woods vibrate freely for impressive resonance and clarity.

V-Class Bracing for Powerful, Balanced Tone

Taylor's innovative V-Class bracing is precision-engineered to maximize volume and sustain while producing even tone across the fingerboard. On the 912ce Builder's Edition, the V-Class bracing complements the premium tonewood construction, resulting in a powerful yet balanced tone with piano-like highs, rich lows and lush overtones.

Ergonomic Design Maximizes Playability

The 912ce Builders Edition's beveled armrest, cutaway and chamfered body edges provide hours of comfortable playability. The guitar's lightweight Grand Concert body sits perfectly in your lap while the curved fingerboard edge follows the natural contour of your hand. The result is an instrument that feels like an extension of your musical self.

Plug in and Shape Your Sound

The 912ce Builders Edition's ES2 pickup system and preamp let you craft your amplified tone. Choose between warm nylon-like tones or brash, metallic sounds by blending the piezo bridge pickups. With independent volume and tone controls for each pickup, you can emphasize bass, mid or treble frequencies. An onboard tuner ensures you always sound your best.

Refined Aesthetics Honor the Tonewoods

Decorative details on the 912ce Builder's Edition pay homage to the tonewood selections. Koa purfling, rosette, fingerboard and peghead accents complement the sinker redwood. Ebony accents, bridge pins and tuner buttons provide visual contrast. The Wild Honey Burst top finish allows the wood grain to shine through for a natural look. Overall, the refined aesthetics match the acoustic excellence of this guitar.
