Crafted at the intersection of solid-wood tone and workhorse utility, the 312ce generates a clear, punchy midrange response with a warm, woody character. With solid sapele back and sides and a Sitka spruce top, players can expect minimal overtones and a focus on the fundamental note, while our V-Class bracing serves up greater volume and longer sustain. The compact frame of the Grand Concert body shape makes for a comfortable, accommodating experience, and will especially appeal to fingerstyle players. The ES2 pickup provides natural-sounding amplified tone, making this a great guitar for virtually any musical application. Subtle, yet stylish appointments such as the white binding, Gemstone fretboard inlays in Italian acrylic and firestripe pickguard round out the package, which ships with a deluxe hardshell case.
