Overview
Academy 12e-N LTD
Watch VideoThis limited-edition nylon-string guitar is ideal for musicians who want an easy-playing, great-looking, price-accessible instrument that will enrich their sound with inspiring neo-classical textures. The Academy 12e-N LTD serves up warm, snappy nylon-string flavors, head-turning visuals and a remarkably comfortable playing experience that encourages guitarists to develop their skills over extended playing sessions. Its layered AA-grade figured Hawaiian koa back and sides—boasting dramatically figured grain patterns—are paired with a solid torrefied spruce top in a Grand Concert body, yielding a mellow voice with a played-in personality, thanks to our special roasting recipe for the soundboard. A 25-1/2” scale length and 1-7/8” nut width provide ample space for fingerstyle techniques, while a slim Taylor neck and carved armrest ensure an ultra-smooth playing experience. Outfitted with an ES-B Nylon pickup system featuring a built-in digital tuner, the Academy 12e-N LTD ships in a soft gig bag for easy transport.
Features
Nylon Warmth, Eye-Catching Beauty
A visually striking Grand Concert that combines rich nylon-string tone, smooth playability and standout aesthetics.
Grand Concert
Our most compact full-scale shape serves up a balanced, articulate voice that responds beautifully to a light touch.
Hawaiian Koa
Vibrant midrange voice with a dash of sparkle in the top end. Beautiful grain and coloration. Grows sweeter and warmer with time and play.
Torrefied Spruce
Treated with our special roasting process, torrefied spruce tops deliver all the clarity, balance and projection you’d expect from a traditional spruce top with an extra dash of warmth and played-in depth.

What strings are recommended?

What is the nut width? This page reports conflicting measurements for nut and scale. I may buy if nut is 1 11/16” and scale is 24 7/8” as stated in Specification section.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Frank. Those details are incorrect, and we’ll get that issue corrected on our site. The correct nut width is 1-7/8", and the scale length is 25.5".
what is the scale length?
25.5"

Best first full size for learning and beyond!!
As a recovering jazz drummer; the inner and outer koa layers do make a slight difference. Having shoulder reconstruction, the beveled armrest makes a huge difference; especially as a new learner. It has a subtle voice that everyone should have a nylon string in their 'stable'.
Your fingers and ears, will be very pleased with the 'upgrade'. ' Gettum while they're available'.
