Taylor Guitars | Body Shapes

Taylor’s full-size body shapes aren’t just about dimensions, they’re about how a guitar feels, responds, and fits into your playing style. Each shape brings out a different voice and character, helping you find the sound and comfort that feels most like you.

Grand Concert

Taylor’s Grand Concert shape delivers focused, articulate tone that shines in the studio and on stage.

Its shorter scale and lighter tension make fretting easier, while the compact size offers comfort, control, and a cleaner mix of overtones, especially for fingerstyle players or anyone who prefers a smaller guitar that doesn’t sacrifice sound.

Look for model names that end with the number 2. For example, 812ce.

  • Body Width: 15"
  • Body Depth: 4 3/8"
