Taylor quality and playability that you’ll feel.
You won’t forget the sound of the Taylor 2012 656ce-L Maple/Spruce Grand Symphony 12-String Left-Handed Acoustic-Electric Guitar. It's full, lush and clear, and of course, with Taylor’s signature 12-string playability.
Big Leaf Maple/Stika Spruce
The 656ce Maple Grand Symphony 12-string Acoustic-Electric is constructed of big leaf maple back and sides with a stika spruce top so it has a crisp, bright tone that cuts through on stage.
Grand Symphony (GS)
Though you might see similarities to a Grand Auditorium, the GS body of the 656ce is unique in both sound and shape. Significant changes in its geometry yield a deeper, more piano-like bass. A wider lower bout and higher, wider waist return ample volume and low-end sustain, in symphony with fuller mids and balanced highs.
Expression System®
Using proprietary pickup technology developed at Taylor, the Expression System® amplifies your guitar with a natural live sound. Onboard tone controls provide added flavor, or set flat for an uncolored, exceptionally-clean amplified sound. It’s your tone, amplified.
