Players love our Grand Concert acoustic guitars for their articulate sound and compact dimensions, and the 112ce-S fits the bill at a price point that's especially ideal for new players. A solid spruce top delivers bold, punchy sound with a balanced, clean character, making it a great choice for fingerstyle players as well as flatpickers and strummers. New and experienced players alike will appreciate the responsive, relaxed feel of the slender Taylor neck, and with ES2 electronics on board, you're guaranteed authentic acoustic tone whenever you need to plug in to an amplifier or PA. A lightweight yet sturdy structured gig bag provides ample protection for carrying the 112ce-S between home, lessons and wherever else your music takes you.
Sapele produces a warm and mellow tonal quality, similar to that of mahogany, for a full and balanced tone with a good helping of volume. Its woody response and punchy midrange make it a popular choice for players seeking a fundamental-rich sound with minimal overtones.
Sitka Spruce is the most commonly used wood for guitar tops. Sitka generates a broad dynamic range and accommodates numerous playing styles from aggressive strumming to fingerpicking. As a guitar soundboard, Sitka spruce is the tonewood standard of the modern era. It’s used on 85-90 percent of the guitars that Taylor makes. Its combination of strength and elasticity translates into a broad dynamic range, yielding crisp articulation and allowing for everything from aggressive strumming and flatpicking to fingerpicking.
If you need to amplify your sound, you'll love the revolutionary onboard ES2 pickup system. The 3 individual sensors located behind the saddle combine with the pro-grade preamp to deliver an unmatched dynamics, perfect for live or studio.
Bracing is the internal framework of an acoustic guitar that plays a vital role in the way the instrument shapes the sound. Although X-bracing has been standard in acoustic guitars for over a century, it creates an innate conflict between two key elements of a guitar's sound: volume and sustain. The guitar's top (its soundboard) contributes significantly to both. The flexibility of the top generates volume (projection), while its stiffness generates sustain. And with X-braced guitar tops, here's where the trade-off comes in: when something is made stiffer, its flexibility is reduced (and vice versa). V-Class bracing changes all that. With Taylor's V-Class bracing, an acoustic guitar top can be both stiff and flexible — for more volume and sustain. V-Class bracing provides stiffness parallel to the strings for more rigidity and hence sustain. Flexibility on either side generates the air movement necessary for robust projection - so it's the best of both worlds. This groundbreaking innovation also improves intonation, not only producing notes that are louder and with longer sustain — but more in tune with each other. V-Class bracing also boosts volume evenly across the tonal spectrum, increases sustain, and improves the natural intonation of the instrument by creating a more synergistic response from the soundboard. This fosters a more harmonious relationship between the notes you play, helping chords to ring out in cohesive splendor. Pick up a Taylor with V-Class bracing and experience it for yourself.
