Presenting the newly updated Taylor Academy Series 12E-N Grand Concert Size Nylon String Acoustic Guitar, now featuring Walnut back and sides.
From Taylor about this model:
“Designed to offer a comfortable, affordable option for players seeking the nylon-string sound with player-friendly features, the Academy 12e-N serves up snappy neo-classical tone with a feel that’s perfect for new learners and experienced players alike. A solid torrefied spruce top treated with a special roasting process adds extra depth and warmth to its bold projection and clarity. This compact Grand Concert acoustic-electric also sports a 1-7/8″ nut width, providing ample string spacing for fingerstyle play without putting undue strain on your fretting hand. And with built-in ES-N electronics and a lightweight gig bag for protection, the Academy 12e-N has everything a budding player could need.”
Key Features of the Academy 12e-N at a glance:
Grand Concert body size/shape: A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.
Layered Walnut Back and Sides: Walnut’s crisp highs are balanced by a deep, woody low end that emerges as the guitar is played in.
Lutz Spruce Top: This natural hybrid of Sitka and White spruce also shares characteristics with Adirondack spruce, responding with power, richness and volume.
ES-B Electronics: This pickup/preamp combo includes a built-in digital chromatic tuner.
