Taylor to Release New 12 String Acoustic - The Taylor GS6-12

Even though Taylor is now more well-known for its acoustic-electrics, the company has always impressed with its pure acoustic models. In fact, its 12-string guitars are favored by a number of all-time great 12-stringers including Leo Kottke. In the last few years, Taylor started its GS line of high-quality acoustic guitars including the Taylor GS6. But that line has not included a 12-string model - until now. There isn’t a page for this guitar yet on the Taylor website, but after reading a glowing review of the Taylor G6-12 in Acoustic Guitar Magazine and also seeing a new page for it on Musician’s Friend, we know it’s coming. With a solid sitka spruce top, solid “big leaf” maple back and sides, X-bracing and an ebony fingerboard and bridge, this guitar is set to impress. We just wish we could try it in less than the 65 days Musician’s Friend says it will take before it is available.
