Description
The Taylor 322ce 12-Fret Grand Concert - Shaded Edgeburst is a great fit for fingerstyle players, recording artists, or anyone looking for a smaller body guitar with a rich, punchy voice. It's built with all solid mahogany and takes inspiration from traditional designs, but brings in Taylor's modern V-Class bracing to boost volume and sustain. The 12-fret setup not only makes it more comfortable to play, but also adds a warm, midrange-focused tone that really stands out whether you're mic'd up or plugged in.
With the 322ce, you're getting a solid mahogany top, back, and sides, plus Taylor's ES2 electronics for easy, reliable amplification. The Grand Concert body keeps things compact and articulate, making it a natural for fingerpicking or tight, dynamic strumming. The firestripe pickguard, shaded edgeburst finish, and Italian acrylic Gemstone inlays give it a classic look that feels special without being flashy.
The shorter scale and 12-fret neck make this one super easy on the hands, whether you're sitting down for a long session or playing a full set. It's lightweight, responsive, and holds tuning really well, which is what you want when you need a guitar to just work. We're confident the 322ce 12-Fret will feel right at home for players who want comfort, character, and reliability all in one.
