Built with a solid spruce top and layered sapele back and sides, the compact, inviting Academy 12e offers an approachable playing experience for guitarists of all skill levels. The solid top serves up bold sound with plenty of projection, while the armrest carved into the lower bout makes for a more comfortable feel for your strumming arm.
With the Taylor Neck, players will notice a slender profile that accommodates your fretting hand, making this a great choice for new learners. With built-in ES2 electronics for easy amplification and a padded gig bag for transportation, the Academy 12e is more than ready for the next step in your musical journey.
