About this listing
I am offering a Taylor 356ce from 2017, a crafted in El Cajon, California (USA), all solid timber 12-string acoustic guitar with a voluminous Grand Symphony body design, Venetian cutaway, fine-grained Sitka spruce top, warm-sounding back and sides made of African sapele, one-piece mahogany neck with "C"-neck profile and 47.6mm TUSQ nut, elegant ebony fingerboard with Italian acrylic gemstone inlays, ebony bridge, tuning-stable closed Taylor chrome tuners, and Taylor ES-2 pickup system in a beautiful natural finish with black pickguard in mint condition, including brown Taylor luxury hardshell case, manufacturer's papers, and professional setup with 10-gauge Elixir strings.This Taylor 356ce is a masterfully crafted Grand Symphony 12-string model from the 300 series, made in El Cajon, California, USA. Taylor's 300 series combines selected solid tonewoods of the highest quality with high-quality hardware and exceptional craftsmanship, creating some of the most beautiful acoustic guitars on the market.The Taylor 356ce has everything you could want in a large 12-string acoustic guitar: a voluminous body shape (comparable to a jumbo), powerful, direct response with maximum tone, and a differentiated, open, incredibly rich sound with complex overtones and warm basses that complement the chorus effect of the twelve strings perfectly. The guitar is extremely versatile and delivers warm, gut-warming pleasure from the very first strum.A sound sample of the model can be found above at the end of the photo gallery.In terms of playability, a medium “C”-shaped neck profile, a wide 47.6mm TUSQ nut, and a low string action ensure a surprisingly easy-going playability.Visually, the thin natural finish, which allows the grain of the tonewoods to shine through, is complemented by elegant black ebony elements on the fingerboard, bridge, headstock veneer, and bridge pins to create a harmonious overall look!Technical specifications:Origin: El Cajon, California, USAYear of manufacture: 2018Body shape: Grand Symphony (Jumbo) with Venetian cutawayTop: Sitka spruce (solid)Bracing: Advanced PerformanceBack/sides: African sapele (solid)Neck: Mahogany, one pieceNeck profile: “C”Fingerboard: Ebony with Italian acrylic gemstone inlaysFrets: 20Nut: TUSQ, 47.6mmHeadstock: Mahogany with rosewood veneerBridge: Ebony bridge with Micarta saddle and ebony bridge pinsMachine heads: Taylor USA nickel tunersPickup: Taylor Expression System 2, activeBody bindings: Black with multi-ply purflingRosette: Concentric ringsPickguard: BlackFinish: NaturalScale length: 648mmSerial no.: 1111217040Includes brown Taylor luxury hardshell case, manufacturer's papersThe Taylor 356ce is no longer manufactured in this configuration.This Taylor 356ce is in mint condition and technically flawless.
