With their intimate feel and relaxed fretting, our 12-fret guitars offer players a unique musical personality with incredible playing comfort. The 812e 12-Fret features a Grand Concert body with Indian rosewood back and sides, a Sitka spruce top, and V-Class bracing inside, producing top-end sparkle and warmth in the bass range with plenty of volume and sustain. The compact body helps keep notes articulate and clear, making this a great choice for fingerstyle players. A radius-style armrest takes the edge off the lower bout for a more seamless feel, and ES2 electronics deliver organic live sound. The 812e 12-Fret ships with a deluxe hardshell case.

Features

Grand Concert - A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.

Indian Rosewood - The tonewood superstar. Popular, traditional, and versatile, Bob Taylor puts Indian rosewood among the greatest tonewoods ever.

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.

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.
