The guitar is in Near Mint / Excellent+ condition. The body, neck, and headstock are virtually flawless.
I have just performed the following maintenance about a month ago:
- New Strings: Elixir Nanoweb Phosphor Bronze HD Lights (.013 - .053).
- Conditioning: Ebony fretboard and bridge treated with MusicNomad F-ONE oil.
- Setup: Strings stretched and tuned for immediate stability.
Taylor 412-R Spec Details:Grand Concert | Desirable "Performance" X-Bracing | Near-MintUp for sale is a stunning 2015 Taylor 412-R Special Edition (Serial #1112035117). This is a unique opportunity to own a USA-made Grand Concert Taylor in incredible condition, featuring "Legacy" specifications highly sought after by enthusiasts and no longer available on new models. The "X-Brace" Advantage (Why This Guitar Is Special)This 2015 model features Taylor's Performance Bracing (a refined traditional X-brace). Built before the universal shift to V-Class architecture, this X-brace allows the soundboard to flex more freely.
- The Tone: Produces a complex, woody low-end and a natural midrange "growl" that purists seek.
- The Feel: Because the top isn't restricted, the guitar physically breathes with rich resonance and volume, offering a classic, full-bodied tone rather than the highly controlled, brighter profile of modern Taylors.
Premium Tonewoods & SpecificationsAs a Special Edition, this guitar features premium solid tonewoods and a pure acoustic design (no electronics or cutaways):
- Body Shape: Grand Concert (Non-cutaway)
- Scale Length: 24-7/8" (Short Scale for easier playability)
- Top Wood: Solid Sitka Spruce (Tight, beautiful grain)
- Back & Side Wood: Solid Indian Rosewood (Dark, rich grain with deep lows and sparkling highs)

Original Deluxe Case & Accessories:Included is the original Taylor Deluxe Hard-Shell Case (Brown Tolex with Burgundy crushed velvet interior).Please Note (Cosmetic Case Condition):
- Hardware: The gold plating on the case latches shows minor localized tarnish under some of the latches. This is extremely common for Taylor deluxe cases from the mid-2010s. It confirms the case's age and authenticity. Latches function perfectly.
- Handle: There is a very small tear in the vinyl covering near the handle’s metal D-ring. The handle remains structurally secure.

- Original Taylor Truss Rod Wrench
- Taylor "Bienvenido" Booklet & String Guide
