For the true acoustic guitar enthusiast, the Taylor 512ce 12-Fret Urban Ironbark Grand Concert AE Guitar is the pinnacle of the craft. This iconic instrument has now been reimagined by master luthier and guitar designer Andy Powers, making it even more exceptional in both sound and feel. With a host of new woods and features, such as a Sitka spruce top with Urban Ironbark back and sides, you’ll be creating a never-before-heard perfect balance of tone and intensity.
This awe-inspiring guitar features a 12-fret body shape, offering a dominant soundboard presence that will have your audience captivated. With its grand concert shape you’ll know right away you’re lacking nothing when it comes to clarity or depth. And with Taylor's patented V-Class bracing the sound will soar, reaching to all corners of the room. And with Taylor’s ES2 electronics you can bring that same clarity and precision to the stage.
Taylor is proud to introduce urban iron bark, or red iron bark, as the new wood for the back and sides for the 512ce 12-Fret. Sourced through our urban wood initiative, urban iron bark is destined to become a favorite among guitar players.
The appointments of the new 500 series capture the traditional aesthetic while adding touches to highlight the new wood pairing. The guitar features Taylor’s revolutionary V class bracing system, which helps increase volume and sustain while improving the natural intonation of the notes and comes equipped with Taylor’s award winning ES2 active electronics.
The 512ce 12-Fret ships in a deluxe hard shell case made by Taylor for optimal fit and protection.
