From Taylor:

“The first 12-string entry in our Builder’s Edition family of guitars, the Builder’s Edition 652ce sports Big Leaf maple back and sides that deliver a focused, player-reflective sound that showcases your individual technique. Torrefied Sitka spruce for the top brings an aged-in warmth and sweetness with V-Class bracing to dial up the volume and sustain. The reverse-strung setup (with the heavier string of each pair on top) generates more tonal heft in this Grand Concert’s rich octave shimmer, and other Builder’s Edition features include a beveled armrest and cutaway, chamfered body edges, a Silent Satin finish and a smooth Curve Wing bridge. The Builder’s Edition 652ce ships with ES2 electronics and a deluxe hardshell case.”
