This Special Edition Taylor 412ce-NR Rosewood Nylon Grand Concert acoustic-electric is truly a remarkable instrument. It features Indian rosewood, one of the most popular and musically expressive tonewoods in the world, paired with a Sitka spruce top to produce a rich and detailed sound. Taylor's Grand Concert is slightly smaller that its Grand Auditorium and yields controlled overtones, so the sound won't occupy a lot of sonic space. This is often a key consideration when other instruments are in the mix, such as in a performance or recording environment, and it allows the guitar to be heard more clearly. Its intimate size makes it lap/couch-friendly, and a great fit for players who find smaller instruments more physically comfortable.

The Special Edition 412ce-NR is equipped with an ES-N single-source, under-saddle transducer and preamp design and tone controls that were customized to complement the nylon-string voice. Taylor's standard ES control knobs (Volume, Treble and Bass) enable plenty of tone-shaping and preserve the natural design aesthetic. This instrument ships in a deluxe hardshell case made by Taylor for optimal fit and protection.
