Great little nylon string guitar. Combination of size, shape and arm bevel make it very comfortable to play. Nice instrument for this steel string player to access some classical tones.
AustraliaI’m very satisfied with my Taylor 12-N. Great quality build and playability. I got what I expected from Taylor. It’s not fancy to look at but it sure sounds nice. Thank you Acoustic Centre
