657ce Doce Doble
With its all-unison tuning and striking visual style inspired by Mexican musical traditions, the Taylor 657ce Doce Doble offers a unique experience for players wanting to explore the sound of a unison 12-string guitar. Solid Big Leaf maple back and sides paired with a solid Sitka spruce top and V-Class bracing add up to a bold, resonant sound with additional warmth and low-end power supplied by our Grand Pacific body shape and the consistent voicing that comes with our double-mounted string anchoring system. A Florentine cutaway provides easy access to the guitar's upper register while adding a traditional visual flair. Appointments for the Taylor 657ce Doce Doble include a white pearloid pickguard with a matching truss rod cover, Mission inlays in mother-of-pearl and grained ivoroid, and gold mini-tuners. It includes ES2 electronics for clear plugged-in tone and ships with a deluxe Western Floral hardshell case.

Highlights:
Grand Pacific
This round-shoulder dreadnought delivers a new flavor of warm, rich Taylor tone.
Sitka Spruce
The soundboard choice for most guitars, Sitka spruce produces a broad dynamic range and accommodates a versatile range of playing styles.
Expression System 2
The Expression System® 2 captures more of a guitar’s dynamic properties using a breakthrough behind-the-saddle design.
Florentine Cutaway
A Florentine cutaway comes to a sharp point, creating a horn-like shape. It is commonly used on our Grand Orchestra and Grand Symphony body styles.
V-Class Bracing
Our patented V-Class bracing is a revolutionary new pattern — a new sonic engine — that marks a major shift away from traditional steel-string bracing patterns.
