Taylor 150ce 12-string guitar
If you want a 12-string guitar that feels comfortable to play while delivering a full, balanced sound, the Taylor 150ce is well worth a close look. This dreadnought has a solid Sitka spruce top, laminated sapele back and sides, and a natural matte finish. According to the product information, the neck feels especially comfortable, which is a real advantage on a twelve-string acoustic guitar.
The sound is described as full and balanced across the entire neck. With 20 frets, a 648 mm scale length and a 47.6 mm nut width, you get dimensions that fit this style of guitar. The ebony fingerboard with dot inlays, sapele neck, and Nubone nut and saddle complete the build.
Acoustic guitar with Taylor ES-2 pickup
If you also want to plug your 12-string into an amplifier, this Taylor comes with the Expression System 2 pickup. At the core of this system is Taylor’s patented behind-the-saddle pickup, using three individually calibrated sensors that capture the guitar’s energy in a natural way. Combined with the custom-designed preamp, Taylor states that this delivers amplified sound with strong responsiveness and a wide dynamic range.
The Taylor 150ce also features chrome mini tuners, a black pickguard, and comes with a sturdy Taylor gig bag. The factory string set is D'Adaddrio XS 0.10. At our music store in Roosendaal, you can also get advice from musicians if you want to compare different 12-string guitars.
