The design goal of the A12 Grand Concert guitar is to bring Taylor's legendary playability and tone to all players. Easy on the fingertips, the A12 produces a rich, crisp responsive voice that suits a variety of musical styles and responds well to both fingerpicking and flatpicking. Another inviting feature is a built-in armrest to enhance the playing comfort.

Features include layered sapele back/sides, solid Sitka spruce top, mahogany armrest, West African ebony fingerboard and bridge, 24-7/8-inch scale length, and 1-11/16-inch nut width. Steel-string models are strung with Elixir Phosphor Bronze Light strings. Other series details include a 3-ring Baltic birch rosette, 4mm Italian acrylic dot fretboard inlays, and matte finish. The guitars ship in a Taylor gig bag.
