Optimized on Every Front Taylor's 150ce Venetian-cut dreadnought is the smooth-playing, shimmeringly vibrant, and flawlessly functional 12-string acoustic-electric that so many guitarists have been hoping for — including quite a few of us here at GearNuts. Structured for resonant success with layered sapele back and sides and complemented by torrefied spruce top, the 150ce exudes a tonal balance that remains lively up front and is backed by a rich midrange and low-end presence. Greater projection, sustain, and bass response are achieved through Taylor's asymmetrical C-Class bracing, making for an exceptionally well-presented acoustic sound no matter where you strum. Put your trust in die-cast chrome mini tuning machines and a Nubone nut to supply outstanding intonation and a snappy, even response to all 12 strings. The finishing touch? The 150ce comes armed with Taylor's ES2 electronics, serving up sensitive and vividly detailed translation of your Taylor's natural tone, complete with Volume
