A 12-string acoustic is a must-have for any player’s guitar toolbox. The shimmering octave sparkle creates unique texture and depth that promise to expand a player’s tonal palette and unleash new sonic possibilities. Our 12-string guitars are renowned for their easy playability and rich, evenly balanced tone, making them fantastic choices for anyone craving that cool double-course sound featured on many classic songs. The Grand Auditorium’s mid-sized dimensions give it a musical versatility that translates well into a 12-string configuration—big enough to produce a full voice with pleasing depth, while also articulate and balanced in a way that showcases the rich octave detail. It also tracks well for recording and fits superbly in a mix with other instruments. Featuring satin-finished sapele back and sides paired with a glossy Sitka spruce top, this model showcases the refined appointments that define our 300 Series guitars: Gemstone inlays, black binding, Taylor nickel mini tuners, a 3-ring rosette and a firestripe pickguard.
