Built on the comfortable, versatile foundation of the Grand Auditorium body shape, this 300 Series 12-string acoustic-electric guitar serves up a rich octave voice that adapts beautifully across styles and genres.  For those looking for a high quality, American-made 12-string acoustic that is easy to play and brings all of the shimmer you'll need to the table, the Taylor 354ce is it.

Back and sides of solid sapele paired with a Sitka spruce top yield a bold midrange character with minimal overtones, maintaining clarity along with the double-course sound while Taylor's V-Class bracing adds more volume, longer sustain and improved harmony all the way up the neck.

Players are sure to appreciate the slender, easy-playing neck, which offers relaxed fretting across the entire tonal spectrum. This model features sleek black binding, a Venetian cutaway, Gemstone fretboard inlays, a firestripe pickguard and a gloss-finished top with a satin finish for the back and sides.

Grand Auditorium
Taylor’s signature shape embodies the ultimate all-purpose acoustic.

Sapele
One of the best all-around tonewoods there is, sapele will deliver for any playing style.

Sitka Spruce
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.

Expression System® 2
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 body.

V-Class Bracing
Our patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
