JAMS Music is your premier authorized Taylor Guitar dealer located in Dublin, California in the San Francisco East Bay Area. We are a Silver Level Authorized Taylor Guitar Warranty Repair Shop.
Sapele, often compared to mahogany because of its look and sound, first joined the Taylor lineup in 1998. Since then, our sapele/spruce 300 Series guitars have welcomed countless players to the all-solid-wood acoustic experience. The limited-edition 50th Anniversary 312ce LTD celebrates and continues that tradition. The cutaway Grand Concert features solid sapele back and sides paired with a torrefied Sitka spruce top. This combination produces a balanced, resonant tone with clarity, warmth and responsiveness. Our special roasting process slightly darkens the soundboard and adds touches of aged-in sweetness and depth from the first time the guitar is played. V-Class voicing architecture inside improves pitch accuracy up and down the neck while boosting volume and sustain. Its slim neck and low action ensure familiar Taylor playability. A shorter, finger-friendly scale length makes fretting easier and reduces string tension, making for an even more inviting playing experience. Gemstone inlays, a bold firestripe pickguard, a shaded edgeburst and gloss-finished body add distinctive visual appeal. Other 50th Anniversary touches include a commemorative label inside, gold Taylor tuners and ebony bridge pins with gold acrylic dots. The guitar comes equipped with an onboard ES2 pickup and ships in a Deluxe Hardshell Case.
