Taylor 354ce LTD 'Sitka Spruce / Figured Maple' 12-String Preowned 2002

This Taylor 354ce LTD from 2002 is a rare and highly desirable 12-string, combining classic Taylor playability with a unique tonewood pairing not commonly seen in this series. Featuring a solid Sitka spruce top and beautifully figured solid maple back and sides, this limited model delivers a bright, articulate voice with exceptional note separation - perfect for capturing the shimmering, octave-rich character that makes 12-strings so inspiring. The maple adds clarity and projection, ensuring every note rings out with precision, whether strummed or fingerpicked.

This 2002-built guitar is in great condition, with minimal playwear and a beautifully aged top with some subtle figuring showing. It's playing beautifully, with the slinky feel that Taylor 12-strings are known for a bright, clear and shimmering tone. There's one small mark next to the binding on the side of the upper bout that appears to be a small dot of permanent marker - it's very minor, but worth highlighting. A killer workhorse 12-string with some nice spec upgrades. Includes original hardshell case.
