Overview

454ce

Watch Video

Fans of the 12-string sound and the overtone-rich voice of Indian rosewood are sure to be enticed by the 454ce, which boasts a gleaming gloss-finish body to complement its shimmering tone. This versatile Grand Auditorium features back and sides of Indian rosewood paired with a Sitka spruce top, delivering warm lows, clear trebles and a blooming overtone character. Inside, our V-Class bracing elevates the response with louder volume and longer sustain while improving pitch accuracy all the way up the neck. This acoustic-electric is appointed for the spotlight, featuring Finial inlays in the genuine ebony fretboard, a faux-tortoiseshell pickguard, crisp white binding and an agoya shell rosette. It includes ES2 electronics for faithful, clear plugged-in sound and ships with a deluxe hardshell case.

Features

Grand Auditorium

Our flagship shape offers comfort and cross-genre utility, with a clear, balanced tone suited for both fingerstyle and strumming.

Indian Rosewood

Deep lows, clear trebles and a slight scoop in the midrange. Rich overtone response with a sparkling, high-fidelity character.

Spruce

The most common top wood between Sitka, Adirondack and Engelmann varieties. Bold, clear, and dynamic sound suits any playing style.

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.

Taylor 454ce 12 string

I love my Tak 12 and the Taylor is the closest I can find to the sound of my 35 year old Tak. I even sold my Gibson Songwriter Special.
