Taylor Academy 12e-N Review & Demo

A nylon-string guitar designed for the masses, this acoustic-electric Grand Concert bodied instrument offers Taylor’s legendary playability and sound.

na klasickú hru to nie je vhodné. zvuk sa mi zdá utlmený a nie priezračný.
Maybe they made it so quiet on purpose, so the parents who bought the guitar won’t have to hear their kid playing it.
I've seen this guitar played by others and it has intonation problems in the upper frets. I'd never tell the player- the proof has been recorded. So though your intonation is OK I'm not tempted to buy Taylor.
Guitar Taylor my dream came true I have the 614ce nylon, that happiness thank you for the tutorial and sharing .. musically..
I will stick with my takamine p3fcn. True it cost twice as much but it's a much better sounding and quality guitar. Taylor guitars in the higher end are nice but they cost alot also. I bought a taylor 710 25 years ago for 500 dollars used. Pretty good deal i know. I played it live for quite some time. Then i discovered martin parlor guitars and other smaller snappy blues guitars. I sold the Taylor for 1850 at a nice profit and really don't miss it. My Martin whiskey sunset sounds better. True i can't go crazy past the 12th fret but i have an older gibson sj for that stuff. Occasionally i will play a couple taylors at a local music store and they sound like crap. they stay in tune are machine made and beautiful to look at. something is missing though. They aren't worth the asking price. My older 710 did have a very sweet sound. Just got tired of it's huge size. I played one of these 12n ones and it didn't have a good sound. Since my only lessons were classical i played a couple of bach pieces that Segovia arranged and some Spanish songs. Neither sounded very rich or authentic. There was an older alvarez nylon guitar in the shop with a cedar top that was leagues above in tone. It was selling for 500 bucks. If you want a nylon hybrid that plays like a dream and does sounf better than the Taylor get the Martin. It is more expensive but a guitar will hold it's value if it isn't a piece of lumber. MT
Sounds like the Taylor big baby. I used to own one. I liked it at first but, as time went on I thought The Sapele makes it sound like a tin can. Just my opinion. Some people may like it. I sold mine.
i just bought it but the back bulging a lot. is that normal?
Did you say it’s nylon braced top?
stop laminated! we want some all massive guitars
Does this have the Taylor bolt on neck?
Wandering how this compares just sound wise with the Taylor 312 ce n ?
Too much talking then plays poorly
so easy to play vs sounds terrible? i rather have a better sounding guitar lol
Love the stripped down top & the slotted headstock!
Esta guitarra es la que se escucha en las canciones de richard marx talea como now and forever, waiting rigth here, etc
Chris, this did not sound as clean as the metal string Taylor Academy 12. Your signature piece was not clean. I guess I will will be getting a Taylor Academy 12 to learn the guitar. You tried to make this guitar sound great. it did not move me. I do!!!! Enjoy your YouTube Videos. Thank you.
Sounds Nice
I just now paid $99 for this very same guitar (minus the pickup) as a promo for buying a 712E. Not bad. Thanks for the excellent videos Chris. Your Taylor review videos convinced me to buy a Taylor. I hope Bob sees this.
made in mexico?
Nice review. Chris .. you seem very comfortable on a nylon string guitar … thnx
What mic did you use to record the playing?
I have to have EBONY Fret Board
Chris Do You Sell Spanish Guitars ( Cordoba, Alhambra… )
This guitar have no sound
Those streaks down the middle of the instrument don't do the guitar any favors. Looks like a water stain though I know it's not.
Excellent demo. Thank you.
Taylor 12 e vs Alhambra 4p?
Plays the guitar @4:50
Please play quickly
What happend to the bridge if you set up Steel strings?
You're looking really trim Chris, keep it up!
acquired mine from tobias music in dec. definitely my go-to instrument. a really nice alternative to a traditional classical.
Anyone notice that no one from Alamo guitars can actually play guitar? Makes me wonder if they actually have a clue what their talking about. Just like the guitar center guys????????????????????????????
Nice.
