A mix of tone woods, construction and appointments combine to make Taylor's famous playability, intonation and tone.
Taylor's 322ce acoustic-electric has everything you need and nothing you don't. The Grand Concert is slightly smaller that the Grand Auditorium and yields controlled overtones, so the sound won't occupy a lot of sonic space. It pairs well with both 14-fret and 12-fret neck-to-body construction, and offers an articulate voice with top-end chime. It's perfect for fingerstyle players and light strummers, though flatpickers are known to enjoy its tonal character too. The tropical mahogany top is known for a meaty midrange featuring a strong fundamental without adding a lot of ringing overtones. It responds well to players with a strong attack who like dry, earthy, lo-fi sounds. Other features include Taylor's V-Class bracing, Expression System 2 behind-the-saddle pickup and a 12-fret neck design. All 300 Series instruments ship in a deluxe hard shell case made by Taylor for optimal fit and protection.
