Taylor Academy 12th-N

The specialist's opinion

A completely revamped nylon string guitar for the modern acoustic guitarist, the Academy 12e-N offers a comfortable playing experience paired with classic, warm acoustic tones.

New players, especially those looking specifically for the feel of a nylon string guitar, will appreciate the Grand Concert's modified body shape, which has a smaller footprint that is more manageable.

With its sapele back and sides and Lutz spruce top, the Academy 12e-N generates an expressive nylon-string tone with the percussive quality that guitarists seek in classical-style guitars, responding perfectly to fingerpicking while remaining warm and clear in flatpicking. Integrated ES-N electronics capture the uniqueness of nylon's sound, while offering tone-shaping controls to faithfully amplify your playing style. It comes with a soft carry bag.
