The Taylor 150e model is a 12 string dreadnought body size with a solid Sitka spruce top and layered walnut sides and back. The bass response and volume created from this large body pairs well with the crisp shimmering octave strings and articulate dynamics of the solid Sitka spruce top.
For many players the lush octave shimmer of a 12 string dreadnought guitar is a familiar and inspiring sound. However, it is often a secondary instrument behind the player’s trusted six string. The Taylor 150e introduces an affordable 12 string to the 100 series of instruments for players looking to broaden their musical palette.
The slim ultra playable Taylor 150e neck shape with 1 7/8 or 48mm inch nut width makes this one of the easiest 12 strings guitars to handle and the easy to use Taylor Expression System 2 pickup has you covered for your louder jams or gigs.
The choice of Walnut and Maple are interesting and effective on the Taylor 150e. 12 strings often occupy a lot of ‘sonic real estate’ and can overpower other instruments or get lost in the mix. As well, if there’s a lot of bottom end, the sound can become a bit muddy. On this guitar, the lows and mids are warm but not overly deep, remaining in a tightly defined range, a big plus if your listener is a microphone. This also makes it an excellent choice for general strumming and fingerstyle – go ahead and explore the Leo Kottke catalog!
The Taylor 150e 12 String is supplied with a padded gig bag.
