A Modern Classic with an Old-Soul Voice

The Taylor Gold Label 712e is one of those guitars that feels instantly familiar, yet full of surprises. It’s a masterclass in blending timeless design with modern innovation. Taylor took the classic, comfortable Grand Concert body shape, a favorite for fingerstyle players and anyone who loves articulate note separation, and gave it a sonic upgrade. The combination of a torrefied Sitka spruce top and solid Indian rosewood back and sides delivers a sound that's both powerful and nuanced. You get the warmth and rich, blooming overtones of rosewood, supercharged with the crisp projection and aged-in sweetness of a torrefied top. It's a guitar that sounds like it's been played and loved for decades, right out of the case.

The Engine: Fanned V-Class Bracing

Under the hood, this 712e is powered by Taylor's fanned V-Class bracing. This isn't just a minor tweak; it's a fundamental improvement to the acoustic engine. The architecture enhances volume and sustain across the entire tonal spectrum. Chords ring out with beautiful intonation, and single notes have a robust, lasting presence. Whether you're digging in with a pick or articulating a delicate melody with your fingertips, the response is immediate and rewarding. The guitar feels alive against your body, resonating with a power that belies its comfortable size.

Plugged-In Perfection

When it's time to hit the stage or the studio, the onboard LR Baggs Element VTC electronics ensure your amplified tone is as pure and detailed as its acoustic voice. This undersaddle pickup system is renowned for its ability to capture the dynamic movement of the guitar's top, translating that energy into a warm, natural sound. It’s a simple, no-fuss system that just works, giving you a reliable, professional-grade tone night after night. It's the perfect complement to an already stellar acoustic instrument.

- In business since 1976! Moore Music has been a premier brick-and-mortar guitar shop in Evansville, Indiana since shortly after opening in 1976. Founder, Pat Moore, instilled in his business the concept of old-school service that we build upon today. When the current owner, Brett Mulzer, took the store online as Moore Guitars in 2013, we quickly developed a reputation for honesty and integrity in all our interactions with our customers. That’s a prime reason why we’re the fastest-growing online guitar shop.

- Old School Customer Service: Nothing is more important than helping a customer even if we don’t make a sale. We believe that if we’re honest with you, and treat you right, you’ll be back.

- Our sales staff are all musicians! What’s more important than communication? We speak your language. Whether you’re a beginner or a professional player, we’ve been in your shoes. A lot of aspects of the guitar are intangible, and a non-player just can’t understand. It’s a guitar thing. But we can talk about tone and feel in the same language you use. We know what it means to love an instrument, and we want to help you find your new love.
