The rosewood and Lutz spruce 712ce pairs Taylor’s cutaway Grand Concert body with a shorter scale length of 24-⅞ inches for a physically compact and intimate playing experience, making fretting chords easier and reducing the guitar’s string tension for a slinky fretting-hand feel. New this year, we’ve added V-Class bracing, our new interior sonic engine, which brings new levels of power and sustain to this small-bodied guitar. Fingerstyle players will love the Grand Concert’s responsiveness together with the articulate sonic detail of the rosewood/Lutz spruce wood combo, and the Venetian cutaway offers more room to play up the neck. Wood-rich aesthetic details include Hawaiian koa binding, a herringbone-style rosette featuring Douglas fir with maple/black accents, and bias-cut Douglas fir top trim, while a new "weathered brown" pickguard design complements the earthy color tones of the rosewood and wood trim. Taylor’s onboard ES2 electronics add a pro-grade pickup and preamp for impeccable amplified acoustic tone.

Grand Concert Shape

A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.

Lutz Spruce Top Woods

This natural hybrid of Sitka and White spruce also shares characteristics with Adirondack spruce, responding with power, richness and volume.

Indian Rosewood Body Woods

The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.

Expression System 2 Electronics

The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Venetian Cutaway

The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the guitar.

V-Class Bracing

A revolutionary design that balances the flexibility and stability of the top, V-Class bracing produces unmatched sustain, volume, and intonation.
