Indian rosewood has long been revered as one of the most expressive and sonically rich tonewoods available, and Taylor brings its classic voice into reach with the 400 Series. The 412ce-R pairs a solid Sitka spruce top with solid Indian rosewood back and sides in a compact Grand Concert body, offering a beautifully balanced sound with articulate highs, warm lows, and a broad midrange complexity. It's finished in a lustrous gloss body finish and crafted to deliver rich tone, superb playability, and timeless Taylor quality.
The 24-7/8" scale and Venetian cutaway make this a supremely comfortable and accessible guitar, whether you're fingerpicking or playing more dynamically. The Expression System® 2 pickup captures every nuance with studio-grade clarity, making it a reliable choice for both stage and studio work. With its elegant appointments and a deluxe Taylor hardshell case, the 412ce-R is ready for any musical setting refined enough for performance, yet built to be played every day.
