With the 312ce, players can expect minimal overtones and a focus on the fundamental note, while its V-Class bracing serves up greater volume and longer sustain.

Why We Love This

The acoustic/electric 312ce responds well to a wide range of playing styles thanks to Taylor’s medium-size Grand Auditorium body.

The 312ce's Sapele back and sides share mahogany’s lively tonal response and, together with a sitka spruce top, rings out with a brightness and clarity that give these guitars a definitive Taylor voice.

Black binding flanks sapele’s ribbon-like grain, with Italian acrylic fretboard dots adding a traditional touch. The guitar incorporates a Venetian cutaway, comes equipped with Taylor’s Expression System 2 pickup, and is priced with a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
