This premium 12-Fret Grand Concert features a tropical mahogany top and body. An exotic timber that not only offers a beautiful aesthetic, but delivers a rich, distinctive sound.

The grand concert is known for its clarity and balance, and its controlled attitude of keeping overtones in check.

And, paired with its V-Class core and solid timbers, the 322ce 12-Fret is ready for the creativity of any adventurous player. Additionally, with a slightly short scale length, string tension is lighter. This makes playability incredibly comfortable with a slinkier feel - no matter your style.
Revolutionary sound from its very core
V-Class is here. And it's everything you've been looking for. Only featured on select models from Taylor. Classed as the 'new sonic-engine'. This brand new bracing pattern was designed by Andy Powers. Bracing a guitar is extremely important, and with Taylor, it's meticulous.
The V-Class bracing enhances the overall sound, and improves the 322ce's sonic performance. It also prevents the instrument from collapsing under string tension. Experience superior volume, sustain, and intonation. Due to V-Class bracing, notes are more in-tune with each other. Bringing you a truly beautiful sound that simply can't be replicated. And, in any position up and down the fingerboard, every note is true, full, consistent, and in complete harmony with each other.
Electronics with a breakthrough design
