Taylor 500 Series | 512ce
Torrefied Solid Sitka Spruce Top, Solid Urban Ironbark Back & Sides
The 512ce is one of Taylor's first models to feature back and sides of solid Urban Ironbark, a dense, hard tonewood that yields a rich, sophisticated response with a deep low end and high-fidelity voice reminiscent of Indian rosewood, along with some of mahogany's midrange punch and focus. The Grand Concert 512ce pairs Urban Ironbark with a torrefied Sitka spruce top, lending a played-in character that makes for a warm, piano-like sound with remarkable balance across the tonal spectrum. With V-Class bracing inside, this compact acoustic-electric serves up room-filling projection and blooming sustain, offering a muscular quality that remains sensitive to a soft touch. Appointments include new Aerial inlays in Italian acrylic, a single-ring abalone rosette trimmed with maple and black purfling, and a tastefully subtle edgeburst. It ships with ES2 electronics in a deluxe hardshell guitar case.
- Solid Urban Ironbark yields power, sweetness and balance
- Torrefied spruce top for played-in, mature sound
- Grand Concert body offers comfort and responsiveness
- Tonewoods yield piano-like fidelity with wide dynamic range
- Includes ES2 electronics and deluxe hardshell case
- Responsibly Sourced Materials
