Taylor NOS 312ce-N
Acoustic Electric

Compact Grand Concert comfort with solid-wood nylon-string tone and exceptional NOS value

The Taylor NOS 312ce-N Acoustic Electric pairs Taylor's compact Grand Concert body shape with nylon strings for an articulate, responsive playing experience that feels equally inviting to classical players and steel-string musicians exploring a different tonal palette. With solid sapele back and sides, a Sitka spruce top, and performance-ready ES-N electronics, this model delivers a punchy midrange, clear highs, and the kind of comfortable playability that makes it easy to settle in for long sessions. As a Taylor NOS model, it offers an excellent opportunity to own a premium Taylor nylon-string Acoustic Electric at a lower price while still enjoying strong long-term value.

The 1-7/8" nut width provides comfortable string spacing for fingerstyle technique without making the neck feel cumbersome, while the Grand Concert dimensions help keep the body approachable and relaxed in the hands. Taylor's ES-N electronics are designed specifically for nylon-string performance, making this an easy choice for players who want dependable amplified tone for live work, recording, or everyday plugged-in playing.

Solid-wood nylon-string tone with clear musical focus

Solid sapele back and sides give this model a warm, punchy midrange with balanced support across the range, while the Sitka spruce top adds clarity, snap, and lively response. Together, they create an articulate and expressive nylon-string voice that works beautifully for fingerstyle playing, accompaniment, and more nuanced musical phrasing.

Grand Concert comfort for expressive playing

Taylor's compact Grand Concert body shape is a natural fit for nylon strings, offering a comfortable feel that encourages detail, control, and dynamic sensitivity. The 1-7/8" nut width gives players the room needed for fingerpicking and classical technique, while the soft cutaway adds easier upper-fret access with a subtler profile than Taylor's standard Venetian style.

Stage-ready performance with refined simplicity

Taylor's ES-N electronics are voiced specifically for nylon-string models, helping preserve the guitar's natural character when amplified. The clean, performance-focused appointment package gives this model an elegant and traditional feel, while the included hardshell case adds dependable protection for transport and storage.

Why choose the Taylor NOS 312ce-N

This model is an excellent choice for players who want compact Grand Concert comfort, solid-wood nylon-string tone, and dependable onboard electronics in a refined Taylor Acoustic Electric. Its articulate voice, comfortable string spacing, and NOS pricing make it a smart way to step into a premium Taylor nylon-string instrument for less.
