Description:
Belonging to the Builder's Edition series, a collection of instruments that represent the pinnacle of Taylor's innovation in materials and design, the Builder's Edition 912ce, thanks to its carefully selected materials, offers a blend of ergonomic design and exceptional acoustic performance.
With its Grand Concert shape, the Builder's Edition 912ce stands out for its playability and remarkable dynamic range, making it perfect for fingerstyle guitarists.
The solid Honduran rosewood used for the back and sides is an extraordinary wood that provides a perfect combination of warmth, definition, and tonal richness. This premium wood, typically reserved for custom instruments, brings an innovative timbre and refined aesthetics to a guitar aimed at a broader audience of musicians.
The solid Sinker Redwood top, a rare wood recovered from submerged logs, delivers a warm and deep sound, with a dynamic response that further develops over time, creating a rich and full tone.
The V-Class bracing, designed by master luthier Andy Powers, further optimizes the guitar's structure, enhancing projection and sustain without compromising natural resonance, giving the instrument incredible responsiveness.
Finally, the electronics feature the Taylor Expression System 2, representing the latest evolutionary step in Taylor's electronics. The sensor is not positioned like traditional piezo pickups beneath the bridge but is placed laterally, thereby reducing the load on the bridge itself, allowing for greater dynamic range and adding the ability to move sections of the pickup closer to or further from the bridge using the provided Allen wrench.
This Builder's Edition 912ce is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, designed for those seeking a refined sound and a level of build quality that exceeds expectations.
