Taylor Academy 12e Acoustic Electric Guitar WIth Gig Bag

Academy 12e

Taylor's popular Academy Series straddles the line between high performance and affordability, and the Academy 12e continues the trend with a delightful combination of crisp tone and seamless comfort. Made with back and sides of layered sapele, this Grand Concert guitar features a smaller body shape that will feel welcoming to players of all ability levels. A solid Sitka spruce top serves up vibrant, articulate acoustic tone, and despite its compact frame, the Academy 12e powers enough room-filling sound to perform effectively as a stage guitar or practice instrument—whichever suits your needs. An armrest, usually found only in high-end Taylor models, lends the guitar an even more welcoming feel, while the built-in ES-B electronics make it easy to plug in and play through any amplifier. A digital tuner with an LED display is also included with the onboard pickup. This model ships with a soft, lightweight gig bag.
