The 352ce 12-string Grand Concert acoustic-electric guitar from Taylor gives you a comfortable playing experience paired with the signature full tone of a 12-string. Solid sapele back and sides combine with a Sitka spruce top to produce a wide dynamic range and strong midrange, while Taylor's V-Class bracing provides even intonation up and down the neck.

Taylor's 300 Series provides an all-solid-wood acoustic at an affordable price; this guitar will only improve with age. In just a few strums you'll discover how Taylor's choice of tonewoods, construction and appointments come together to create renowned playability, intonation and tone. The 300 Series gives you everything you need and nothing you don't for fantastic sound and feel.

Intimate Body Shape with Controlled Overtones

Taylor's Grand Concert body is slightly smaller than the Grand Auditorium, producing controlled overtones so the sound doesn't occupy too much sonic space. This makes it ideal for playing with other instruments in a performance or recording setting, allowing your guitar to cut through the mix. The Grand Concert pairs well with 12-fret and 14-fret necks, offering an articulate voice with chimey highs. It's perfect for fingerstyle and light strumming, though flatpickers will also appreciate its tonal character. The cozy size makes it comfortable for playing in your lap or on the couch, ideal for those who prefer smaller instruments.

Premium Tonewood Pairing

A guitar's top wood acts as the primary filter and distributor of string vibration, greatly impacting its tone. Sitka spruce is the most popular guitar top wood today, blending stiffness and flexibility to produce a wide dynamic range with crisp articulation. Solid sapele back and sides complement the top, with a tone falling between the dry, woody sound of mahogany and the complex overtones of rosewood. Sapele responds well to various playing styles and works nicely in an instrument blend.

V-Class Bracing for Improved Intonation

Taylor's V-Class bracing is an innovative acoustic guitar design that provides several benefits over traditional X-bracing. It acts as a "sonic engine" to increase volume, sustain and largely resolve the intonation issues that often plague acoustics. V-Class bracing produces purer, more orderly notes that don't cancel each other out or sound "off." The response is clearer and more consistent, with the entire fingerboard brought into better sonic alignment for a more musical playing experience. Guitars with V-Class bracing are easier to tune, with pitch that sounds truer and more solid. Electronic tuners can locate notes more easily for quick tuning.

Find Your Voice with Onboard Electronics

The 352ce 12-string includes Taylor ES-B pickup electronics for amplifying your guitar with a natural acoustic sound. Controls include volume, treble and bass, letting you shape your tone for any musical situation. The ES-B captures the rich harmonic content and distinctive chime of Taylor 12-strings, giving you a high-fidelity amplified experience for performing live or recording in the studio.
