Taylor 800 Series | 858e LTD - 12-String
Solid Sitka Spruce Top, Solid Indian Rosewood Back & Sides
Only four of these 12-strings are going to be coming to the UK and we've managed to secure two of them. This is going to be a real treat and collector's piece for whoever gets one. Taylor know how to make a guitar feel easy to play and have loads of clarity; two essential qualities when choosing a 12-string. Aesthetically it's a great balance between their normal beauty touches but the more traditional look of no-cutaway. These are really awesome works of art and masterbuilt instruments at the same time.
- Solid Indian rosewood body for warm 12-string shimmer
- Sitka spruce top yields serious power and projection
- V-Class bracing dials up more sustain and louder volume
- Radius armrest for a seamless, relaxed feel
- Includes ES2 electronics and deluxe hardshell case
- Responsibly Sourced Materials

One of Taylor's first 12-string guitars built with V-Class bracing in the Grand Orchestra body shape, the 858e LTD is an electro-acoustic featuring back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with a Sitka spruce top, yielding a rich octave shimmer with warm lows, crisp trebles and a slightly scooped midrange. With V-Class bracing inside, the jumbo-style body delivers room-filling volume without losing clarity or balance, retaining a dynamic response to a soft touch that pairs beautifully with the complex overtone profile of the rosewood/spruce construction. This limited-edition model boasts a comfort-enhancing radius-style armrest along with the slender Taylor neck for an ultra-relaxed feel despite the larger body. Appointments include maple binding, a single-ring abalone rosette, mother-of-pearl Element fretboard inlays, a gloss-finish body, and a rosewood pickguard.

Grand Orchestra - Taylor's biggest body shape blends power, detail and balance across the tonal spectrum.
Indian Rosewood - The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.
Sitka Spruce - The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
Expression System 2 - The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar's dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
V-Class Bracing - Taylor's patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern - a new sonic engine - that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
