The Taylor 352ce 12-string acoustic-electric guitar is Taylor’s take on a 12-fret acoustic guitar. Its Grand Concert body is made up of a solid Sitka spruce top and sapele back and sides. The body and tonewoods create a warm bass response and sparkling treble. The Taylor 352ce has a 12-fret neck joint and compressed 24-7/8-inch scale length that make the strings easy to fret. It’s appropriate to say that this guitar is pleasing to all your senses. It has Taylor’s enviable build quality, feels great to play, and has the classic, beautiful tone of the best acoustic guitars.

Today’s tonewood combination





Taylor is leading the charge for environmental conservation among guitar builders. To do their part, Taylor has been incorporating tonewoods with sustainable growing cycles into their line of guitars. The Taylor 352ce’s body is made from renewable sapele, an African tonewood that is quickly gaining fans among the guitarists at Sweetwater for its mahogany-like tonal balance and warmth. The body is paired with a Sitka spruce top that produces a bright sound with an appealing warmth. No matter how you’re picking, you’ll appreciate the highly articulate attack.

Taylor ES2 electronics deliver natural and dynamic amplified sound





Artists who play plugged in will appreciate the Taylor 352ce’s natural-sounding Expression System 2 (ES2) electronics. This system features a 3-section proprietary pickup located behind the guitar’s saddle to better capture the natural vibrations of the saddle. On the upper bout, you have access to Bass, Treble, and master Volume controls. Once you plug in your ES2 electronics, you’ll hear the difference.





Cutting-edge bracing pattern





Taylor has continued to introduce innovations since they burst onto the guitar market. From glue-less neck joints to advanced pickup designs, Taylor consistently brings cutting-edge innovations to traditional guitar-building techniques. V-Class bracing is Taylor’s proprietary bracing pattern that provides a more orderly sound and better intonation. V-Class guitars produce strong volume and sustain much longer than their traditionally braced counterparts.
