Drop us a message!The Shimmer and Chime Your Songs Have Been MissingThere's a reason seasoned players reach for a 12-string—it's a secret weapon for adding lush, chorus-like layers and rich harmonic complexity to any track. The Taylor 254ce Plus isn't just a 12-string; it's an effortlessly playable instrument that delivers that iconic shimmer without the fight. Built on Taylor's player-favorite Grand Auditorium body shape, it's comfortable, articulate, and ready for the stage or studio right out of the box.Tone That's Both Classic and ModernThe magic starts with a **torrefied Sitka spruce top**. This roasting process ages the wood, giving it the warm, responsive, and played-in character of a vintage guitar from day one. Paired with layered **Indian Rosewood back and sides**, you get a tone that's rich in overtones, with a clear, projecting high end and a satisfying low-end presence. From jangly open chords to intricate fingerstyle passages, every note blooms with incredible detail.Effortless PlayabilityLet's be real—12-strings can be a workout. But Taylor's legendary neck design makes the 254ce Plus a dream to play. The **Standard Carve neo-tropical mahogany neck** feels immediately familiar and comfortable, and the 1-7/8" nut width provides just enough space for clean chording without feeling cumbersome. The Venetian cutaway offers easy access to the upper frets, inviting you to explore the entire **West African Crelicam Ebony fretboard**.Stage-Ready ElectronicsWhen it's time to plug in, Taylor's onboard **Expression System® 2 (ES2) electronics** deliver a transparent and natural amplified tone. The behind-the-saddle pickup design captures the guitar's dynamic range and resonance beautifully, ensuring your live sound is as inspiring as your acoustic one. It's a true plug-and-play workhorse.Key reasons why your next instrument should come from Moore Guitars:- Moore Guitars is a Top 300 Seller by Reverb and a Top 100 Music Retailer by NAMM!
