With its distinctive voice, comfortable contours and sleek appointments, the Next Generation 712ce promises an inspiring musical experience across playing styles. This compact Grand Concert acoustic-electric features back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with a Western Red cedar top, a unique combination that generates a warm, sweet character overflowing with harmonic texture and overtone bloom. Inside, our scalloped V-Class bracing dials up more low-end presence along with enhanced volume and sustain, adding up to a potent response that remains balanced and clear across the frequency spectrum.

A slender Action Control Neck offers relaxed fretting while letting the player dial in the perfect feel in minutes, while our Claria electronics ensure clean, usable amplified tone whenever you need to plug in. This model sports a natural full-body gloss finish, white binding with black/white/black top edge trim, a green abalone rosette, Reflections peghead and fretboard inlays in mother of pearl, gold tuning machines, abalone-dotted ebony bridge pins, and a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard.

Overview

  • Rosewood back and sides add lush, blooming overtones
  • Grand Concert body offers a compact, comfortable feel
  • Scalloped V-Class bracing adds more volume, sustain and low-end presence

Grand Concert - A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.

Indian Rosewood - The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.

Action Control Neck - Building on Taylor’s legacy of easy-playing necks, the new Action Control Neck pairs a long-tenon joint for added warmth and depth with a patented system for effortless string height adjustment.

Western Red Cedar - A true performer for those with a lighter touch, cedar tops yield extra warmth and pair nicely with mahogany and rosewood.

The Claria Acoustic Pickup System - A reimagined pickup and preamp channel the Grand Concert’s natural articulation, with soundhole-mounted controls that make it easy to shape your sound in live or recording settings.

Venetian Cutaway - The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.
