Taylor 500 Series | 552ce 12-Fret - 12-String

Solid Western Red Cedar Top, Solid Tropical Mahogany Back & Sides

The 552ce 12-Fret offers a totally unique experience within the Taylor line, blending the responsive sound of solid mahogany and cedar with a compact, relaxed feel. The mahogany back and sides serve up a woody, focused midrange, while cedar's softer quality gives this guitar a remarkable warmth and sensitivity to a soft-touch - a perfect combo for players who use a wide dynamic range. Inside, the V-Class bracing scheme dials up greater volume and longer sustain, and the built-in ES2 electronics provide faithful tone in amplified settings. Other specs include a genuine West African ebony fretboard and Century inlays in grained ivoroid. It ships with a deluxe hardshell case.

  • Mahogany/cedar tonewood pairing for unique sound
  • 12-fret setup adds midrange punch and slinky feel
  • V-Class bracing and solid woods for power, sustain
  • Cedar top offers warmth and soft-touch sensitivity
  • Includes ES2 pickup and hardshell guitar case
  • Responsibly Sourced Materials

Grand Concert - A smaller-bodied guitar ideally suited for fingerstyle.

Tropical Mahogany - A midrange powerhouse. Mahogany is prized for balance and articulation, making it one of the best all-around tonewoods there is.

Western Red Cedar - A true performer for those with a lighter touch, cedar tops yield extra warmth and pair nicely with mahogany and rosewood.

Expression System 2 - The Expression System 2 captures more of a guitar.s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.

Venetian Cutaway - The Venetian cutaway is known for its soft, round lines. The sloping peak of the cutaway will vary depending on the shape of the body.

V-Class Bracing - Taylor's patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern - a new sonic engine - that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
