The Taylor Builder's Edition 912ce is a premium electro-acoustic guitar meticulously crafted with high-quality tonewoods and player-focused features. This Grand Auditorium model boasts a solid Honduran rosewood back and sides, known for its complex harmonic texture, warm lows, and clear trebles. The top is made from sinker redwood, reclaimed from old-growth logs submerged in riverbeds. This wood offers a warm, touch-sensitive response similar to cedar, but with increased volume and dynamic range.
Taylor's V-Class bracing system enhances the guitar's sonic performance by improving volume, sustain, and intonation. The design allows the top to be both stiff and flexible, resulting in a richer, more balanced tone. Comfort is a key consideration in the 912ce's design. Features like a bevelled armrest and cutaway, along with chamfered body edges, contribute to a comfortable playing experience. The smooth Curve Wing bridge further enhances playability.
The guitar is equipped with Taylor's Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics, a behind-the-saddle pickup system that captures the nuances of the guitar's acoustic sound. The ES2 features three individually calibrated sensors that respond to the guitar's energy, delivering a natural and dynamic amplified tone.
Aesthetically, the 912ce showcases elegant details, including Hawaiian koa purfling, paua edge trim, an ebony backstrap, and Gotoh 510 tuners in antique gold. The Belle Fleur inlays in paua and mother-of-pearl add a touch of sophistication, while the Kona edgeburst finish on the back and sides complements the overall design. The guitar comes with a Taylor deluxe hardshell case for protection.
