From Taylor Guitars
The 812-N provides all the snappy, modern nylon-string tone a player could want in a package that strikes a balance between classical sound and modern feel. This Grand Concert acoustic-electric sports back and sides of solid Indian rosewood paired with a Sitka spruce top, which resonate with lush overtones and crisp treble notes that ensure strong definition and clarity—perfect for fingerstyle arrangements. In the 812ce-N, the Taylor neck features a 20" radius that will feel natural for experienced classical players, along with a 1.875" nut width that makes for more comfortable fretting. ES-N electronics deliver faithful amplified sound, and the included hardshell case offers protection during transport.
