{"product_id":"taylor-854ce-next-generation","title":"Taylor Next Generation 854ce","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Next Generation 854ce is a 12-string Grand Auditorium in solid Indian rosewood and Sitka spruce, with V-Class bracing and Claria electronics. V-Class adds volume and sustain and keeps notes in tune with one another up the neck, which on a 12-string is what keeps the octave pairs clean. Claria puts its controls at the soundhole, mid-contour knob included, so the plugged-in sound is quick to set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaylor voices it with a complex response: sparkle on top, warmth underneath and a lot of overtone in between. The neck is the slim standard carve with a 1-7\/8\" nut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe appointments are maple binding with black, maple and rosewood edge trim, a green abalone rosette, mother-of-pearl Element inlays, an Indian rosewood pickguard and smoked nickel tuners. The radius-style rosewood armrest rounds off the edge under the strumming arm. For the same woods and body with Weathervane inlays and black binding, look at the Next Generation 454ce. For Honduran rosewood and an Adirondack spruce top, the Next Generation PS54ce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBODY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCountry of Origin: USA\u003cbr\u003eBody Shape: Grand Auditorium\u003cbr\u003eCutaway: Venetian Cutaway\u003cbr\u003eBracing System: V-Class Bracing\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Strings: 12 String\u003cbr\u003eTop Wood: Spruce\u003cbr\u003eBack\/Side Wood: Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eRosette: Green Abalone Single Ring\u003cbr\u003eBack Configuration: 2-piece No Wedge\u003cbr\u003eBody Binding: Pale Non-Figured Maple\u003cbr\u003eArmrest: Radius Indian Rosewood\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\u003eNeck Profile: Standard Carve\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Inlay: Mother-of-Pearl Element\u003cbr\u003eFretboard Binding: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNeck Finish: Satin\u003cbr\u003eNut Width: 1-7\/8\"\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Veneer Wood: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eScale Length: 25-1\/2\"\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Inlay: Mother-of-Pearl Element\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Type: Paddle\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Binding: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003ePeghead Finish: Gloss\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eELECTRONICS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElectronics: The Claria Acoustic Pickup System\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHARDWARE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBridge: West African Crelicam Ebony\u003cbr\u003eNut \u0026amp; Saddle: Black Tusq Nut, White Micarta Saddle\u003cbr\u003eBridge Pins: West African Crelicam Ebony with Green Abalone Dots\u003cbr\u003eStrings: D'Addario XS Coated Phosphor Bronze Light (.010 - .047)\u003cbr\u003ePickguard: Indian Rosewood\u003cbr\u003eTuners: Taylor Smoked Nickel with Smoked Nickel Buttons\u003cbr\u003eStrap Pin: Black\u003cbr\u003eEnd Pin: Black\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Natural","offer_id":47769348997204,"sku":"A80610211840007A000","price":5999.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0700\/1220\/7188\/files\/Taylor-854ce-2026-Spec--1210035089-FrontLeft-2025_sq.jpg?v=1791348366","url":"https:\/\/lauzonmusic.com\/products\/taylor-854ce-next-generation","provider":"Lauzon Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
