{"product_id":"taylor-552ce","title":"Taylor 552ce","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 552ce is a 12-string on Taylor's compact Grand Concert body with a neck that joins at the 12th fret, solid red ironbark back and sides and a torrefied spruce top. The 12-fret joint moves the bridge, and Taylor credits it with extra midrange punch and a more relaxed feel under the hand. The 24-7\/8\" scale helps too, since a shorter scale is easier to fret, which counts for a lot with twelve strings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaylor likens red ironbark to Indian rosewood with more power and clarity. The small body answers a light touch, so there's a wide range between soft fingerpicking and a full strum. V-Class bracing and Expression System 2 complete it, with sapele binding, an ebony-bound fretboard and a tortoise pickguard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor a 12-string on the 25-1\/2\" scale in a Grand Auditorium body of solid Indian rosewood, look at the Next Generation 454ce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA\u003cbr\u003eCutaway: Venetian Cutaway\u003cbr\u003eBracing System: V-Class Bracing\u003cbr\u003eTop Wood: Torrefied Spruce\u003cbr\u003eBack Configuration: 2-piece No Wedge\u003cbr\u003eBody Binding: Sapele\u003cbr\u003eArmrest: No\u003cbr\u003eTop Finish: Gloss\u003cbr\u003eBack\/Side Finish: Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNECK\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNeck Wood: Neo-Tropical Mahogany\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Wood: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Binding: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 24-7\/8\"\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Type: Paddle, Standard\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Binding: None\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Finish: Satin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElectronics: Expression System® 2\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNut \u0026amp; Saddle: Tusq Nut, Micarta Saddle\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pins: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eStrings: D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light (.010 - .047)\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Tortoise\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Taylor Nickel\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Natural","offer_id":47769347194964,"sku":"A503126111007000309","price":5199.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/1220\/7188\/files\/taylor-552ce-1207262194-frontleft-2022_sq.jpg?v=1791348284","url":"https:\/\/lauzonmusic.com\/products\/taylor-552ce","provider":"Lauzon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
