Product Description
With its distinctive voice, comfortable contours and sleek appointments, the Next Generation 712ce promises an inspiring musical experience across playing styles. This compact Grand Concert acoustic-electric features back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with a Western Red cedar top, a unique combination that generates a warm, sweet character overflowing with harmonic texture and overtone bloom. Inside, our scalloped V-Class bracing dials up more low-end presence along with enhanced volume and sustain, adding up to a potent response that remains balanced and clear across the frequency spectrum. A slender Action Control Neck offers relaxed fretting while letting the player dial in the perfect feel in minutes, while our Claria electronics ensure clean, usable amplified tone whenever you need to plug in. This model sports a natural full-body gloss finish, white binding with black/white/black top edge trim, a green abalone rosette, Reflections peghead and fretboard inlays in mother of pearl, gold tuning machines, abalone-dotted ebony bridge pins, and a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard.
Features
- Long-Tenon Action Control Neck -The long-tenon neck joint improves the neck-to-body connection, adding warmth and depth to the guitar’s voice. At the same time, the Action Control feature makes adjusting string height quicker and more precise than ever — no need to remove strings or the neck. Players can dial in their preferred setup in seconds and adapt on the fly to changing styles or shifting climate conditions. It’s the ultimate fusion of tone, stability and setup convenience.
- Scalloped V-Class Bracing - The latest evolution of Taylor’s V-Class bracing introduces a scalloped profile that unlocks a warmer low end and richer open-string resonance, while preserving the balance, pitch accuracy and projection that define V-Class. The guitars are now seasoned with a touch of low-end depth that adds more fullness to the voice.
- Claria System Acoustic Electronics - Developed with extensive input from touring artists and live sound engineers, Taylor’s new Claria System reimagines the under-saddle piezo pickup to deliver consistent plug-and-play acoustic tone in any setting. A proprietary preamp tames the harshness of traditional piezos and incorporates soundhole-mounted controls: Volume, Tone and a versatile Mid-Contour knob. The result is a consistent, stage-ready tone that’s easy to shape for any setting — from solo café gigs to large-venue performances.
