Taylor 212ce Plus – Torrefied Spruce Grand Concert Acoustic-Electric

The Taylor 212ce Plus is the rare acoustic-electric that genuinely delivers at every level—from bedroom practice to live performance to studio recording. A solid torrefied spruce top, compact Grand Concert body, and onboard ES2 electronics make it one of the most versatile guitars in Taylor's 200 Series lineup.

Torrefied Spruce Top

Torrefaction roasts the spruce top under controlled heat, replicating decades of natural aging in a fraction of the time. The result is a top that responds with the depth, warmth, and resonance of a well-played vintage instrument—right out of the case. Bold projection and exceptional clarity make it equally at home for fingerstyle, flatpicking, and strumming.

Grand Concert Body Shape

The compact Grand Concert silhouette offers a relaxed, intimate playing feel with a shorter scale length that reduces string tension and makes fretting effortless—ideal for players with smaller hands, younger players, or anyone who values comfort during long sessions. Its articulate, focused tonal character is particularly well-suited to fingerstyle and intricate flatpicking.

ES2 Electronics & Portability

Taylor's behind-the-saddle ES2 pickup system captures the guitar's natural acoustic voice with exceptional clarity and minimal feedback—plug in and play without compromise. The included AeroCase provides serious protection in a lightweight, travel-friendly package with ample accessory storage.
