Taylor Somos 260ce-K DLX Doce Doble 12-String, Koa w/Deluxe Hardshell Case Overview

The Taylor Somos 260ce-K DLX Doce Doble stands at the top of Taylor’s Somos Collection — an inspiring instrument that blends Latin-influenced design with Taylor’s world-renowned precision and tone. This 12-string model embodies the rich, harmonic shimmer and full-bodied warmth of a unison-strung Doce Doble, combining traditional double-course character with the modern clarity and comfort that define Taylor craftsmanship.

Built with a solid Hawaiian koa top and layered figured koa back and sides, this deluxe model delivers a vibrant, punchy sound with lush midrange presence and sparkling highs. Taylor’s C-Class (Cantilevered V-Class) bracing enhances resonance, sustain, and dynamic balance, while the onboard Taylor ES2 electronics provide a clear, natural amplified tone ideal for both stage and studio. Elegant appointments such as the shaded edgeburst gloss finish, Sentinel inlays, black binding, and gold tuners elevate its premium aesthetic, making it as visually stunning as it is sonically inspiring.

For performers, songwriters, and players exploring Latin or modern acoustic genres, the 260ce-K DLX Doce Doble delivers world-class tone, premium materials, and unmatched playability — a flagship instrument in every sense.
