Taylor’s nylon-string models make the distinctive classical sound more accessible to steel-string players with ultra-playable necks and modern features like a cutaway and onboard electronics. The Grand Concert 412ce-N captures African ovangkol’s rosewood-like tone, which pairs well with Sitka spruce and can accommodate a range of playing styles. White binding applies a crisp counterpoint against the all-gloss body, while Taylor’s ES-N pickup brings nylon’s evocative tonal flavors into a clear amplified acoustic sound. The guitar ships in a Taylor deluxe hardshell case.
