Taylor's 456ce embodies a superb blend of classic tonewoods and modern electronics in a 12-string. With it, you get a gorgeous solid Sitka spruce top with ovangkol as its back and sides - ensuring excellent tone when unplugged. Yet, Taylor also added their renowned Taylor Expression electronics system, which makes the Taylor 456ce ripe for stage use, as well. And, whether you favor strum-style playing or fingerpicking you'll be equally delighted, as it features the boominess of the Grand Symphony body style, which gives you excellent note definition, with the Taylor 456ce.
