Description
Taylor's 512ce Grand Concert Urban Ironbark represents a new standard for fingerstyle players. Boasting exceptional playability and a unique tonewood combination that gives it a gorgeous, complex voice, this guitar is perfect for players who want a premium acoustic that sounds as striking as it looks.
The 512ce Grand Concert's Urban Ironbark body provides a rich, dynamic tone, similar to Indian rosewood but with more resonance and a more present high-end. Its torrefied Sitka spruce top delivers a strong, crisp sound across the entire frequency spectrum, and its V-class bracing allows the soundboard to flex more naturally for increased volume and sustain.
Players who prefer performing amplified will love the 512ce's ES2 behind-the-saddle pickup that perfectly captures its organic, woody tone. This pickup system is one of Taylor's most advanced and best-sounding pickups, courtesy of its three uniquely positioned and individually calibrated pickup sensors.
Complete with a Venetian cutaway that allows for unrestricted access to all 20 frets, Taylor's 512ce Urban Ironbark is ideal for players seeking a top-of-the-line acoustic-electric guitar geared toward fingerstyle playing.
