The Taylor 254ce Plus left-handed acoustic-electric guitar delivers impressive acoustic sound in an accessible 12-string for left-handed players. With a Torrefied Sitka spruce top and layered rosewood back and sides, it generates a punchy, resonant unplugged tone. Its cutaway Grand Auditorium body provides comfortable access to the highest frets. For amplified situations, the guitar includes Taylor's ES2 pickup system to faithfully reproduce the 254ce Plus's acoustic voice through an amp or PA. This innovative left-handed 12-string is ideal for guitarists seeking the extended range of a 12-string in a comfortable, rich-sounding Taylor guitar.

Access the High Frets Easily With the Cutaway Design

The Grand Auditorium body style of the left-handed 254ce Plus features a convenient cutaway for easy access to the high notes on the fingerboard. The sleek cutaway allows your fretting hand to smoothly reach those upper frets near the body, making it easier to solo, bend notes and explore new voicings. The ergonomic body shape also enhances playing comfort whether seated or standing. The 254ce Plus lefty model opens up the versatile GA tone and playability to southpaw guitarists.

A Torrefied Top Increases Punch and Dynamics

This left-handed 254ce Plus uses a solid Torrefied Sitka spruce top, which improves the guitar's tonal response. The torrefaction process enhances the wood's resonance and articulation. You'll hear a focused low end, clear midrange and crisp highs with excellent note separation. Strumming and flatpicking have a bold punch, while fingerstyle playing rings out with superb nuance. The torrefied top also increases sensitivity, giving you exceptional dynamics that react to your pick or finger attack. Each individual string projects with improved balance and sustain.

Layered Rosewood Back and Sides Offer Resonant Tone

The layered rosewood back and sides provide a balanced tonal foundation that complements the articulate top. Rosewood's rich overtones add body and dimension to the 254ce Plus lefty's voice. The layered construction makes the guitar lightweight while retaining rosewood's vibrant resonance. You'll appreciate the rosewood's crisp note decay and ample low-mid warmth when strumming chords. For accompanying vocals or other instruments, the rosewood produces a clear, balanced tone across the tonal spectrum.

Taylor's ES2 Pickup Captures Your Acoustic Sound

Plug in the included Taylor ES2 pickup and the 254ce Plus lefty accurately conveys your unplugged tone through an amplifier or PA. Taylor's patented behind-the-saddle pickup design senses string vibrations with three adjustable sensor elements. This provides a dynamic range of acoustic sound and responsiveness. The onboard preamp gives you control over volume, bass and treble for dialing in your amplified tone. Whether you're on stage or recording direct, the Taylor ES2 pickup faithfully captures this left-handed 12-string's natural acoustic voice.
