The 150ce is the current chapter of that story, and it is the strongest yet: a solid torrefied spruce top over layered sapele, Taylor's C-Class bracing underneath, a Venetian cutaway for the upper frets, and Expression System 2 electronics ready for the PA. Twelve strings without the wrestling match — and it lands with a Taylor gig bag in tow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA 12-string neck you can actually get around\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat separates a 12-string you play from a 12-string you own is nearly always the neck. Taylor carves the 150ce's neo-tropical mahogany neck slim, then spaces the six string pairs across a 1-7\/8\" Tusq nut so each course sits cleanly under your fingers without crowding the next. The matte finish keeps position shifts quick, the ebony fingerboard runs 20 frets with tidy acrylic dot markers, and the familiar 25-1\/2\" scale keeps barre chords honest rather than exhausting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA torrefied top that arrives played-in\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTaylor roasts the 150ce's solid spruce top — a controlled bake that drives out moisture and volatiles the way decades of playing would. The payoff is a drier, more open response from the first strum, with a warm amber tint to match. On a 12-string it matters double: all that string energy meets a top that has already loosened up and is ready to move.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eC-Class bracing keeps the low end in the room\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwelve-strings are rich in sparkle and famously light on foundation, because the octave courses live high in the spectrum. Taylor's C-Class bracing was designed for exactly this problem: an asymmetric pattern that lets the treble side of the top shimmer while the bass side works harder, so the chime sits on genuine low-end support. Add the dreadnought body's natural authority and the result is twelve-string bloom with a floor under it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLayered sapele built for Australian weather\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe back and sides are layered sapele, ribbon-striped and finished in matte to match the top. Layered construction is a deliberate choice here: it shrugs off the humidity swings that torment solid-wood flat-tops, which makes the 150ce a genuine take-anywhere guitar — touring van one week, beach-house verandah the next. Black binding with a fine white purfling line keeps the edges sharp without dressing the guitar up beyond its job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCutaway access and ES2 electronics\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe \"c\" and \"e\" in the name are the working parts. The Venetian cutaway opens up the fingerboard past the 14th fret — welcome on capoed arrangements and lead lines alike. Plugged in, the Expression System 2 does the heavy lifting: three sensors positioned behind the saddle read the top's actual movement rather than just string squeeze, translating it into a warm, honest amplified voice. A master volume and two EQ dials sit on the upper shoulder where you can reach them mid-song.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eGig bag in, setup done\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery 150ce ships in Taylor's structured gig bag, strung with D'Addario XS coated phosphor bronze strings — coated to survive the extra finger-time a 12-string invites. Set up in-store by Guitar World Australia's techs before it ships to you, so it plays perfectly the moment it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eSeries\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBrand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTAYLOR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eModel\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e150ce\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBody Shape\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDreadnought\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eNumber of Strings\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eCutaway\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVenetian\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eTop\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid torrefied spruce\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"text-align:left;\"\u003eBack \u0026amp;

It sits in the G70 line, the top shelf of Takamine's G Series, and it is finished in gloss natural with gold hardware and abalone trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eA jumbo body, because twelve strings need the room\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwelve strings put roughly twice the string mass and a good deal more tension across the top than a six, and a small body simply runs out of air trying to move it. The jumbo shape here is the answer: 435 mm across the lower bout and 125 mm deep at the tail block, which is about as much cubic space as a steel-string gets. Strummed open chords bloom the way a twelve-string is supposed to, with the octave courses ringing on well after the pick has moved on, and the low end stays behind the octave shimmer instead of disappearing under it. A Venetian cutaway keeps the upper frets reachable, which is more useful on a twelve than people expect — capoed at the fifth or seventh is where a lot of this repertoire lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSolid spruce over flame maple\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe top is solid spruce, and on a twelve-string that matters more than usual: a solid top keeps working and opening up under the extra tension where a laminate stays where it started. Back and sides are flame maple, which is a deliberate pairing rather than a cosmetic one. Maple is a bright, stiff, reflective timber that adds very little colour of its own, so the twelve-string's octave courses stay separated and articulate rather than smearing into one another. Put a mahogany or rosewood twelve next to this and the Takamine is the one where you can still hear individual strings inside a big open chord. The flame figure runs through the gloss finish on the back and sides, with multi-ply binding around the body and an abalone rosette in concentric rings around the soundhole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe split saddle is the detail that counts\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLook closely at the laurel bridge and the saddle is in two separate pieces, stepped against each other rather than sitting in one straight line. That is not decoration. On a twelve-string the wound octave strings need a different speaking length from the plain ones next to them, and a single straight saddle can only ever compromise between the two — which is why so many cheap twelves sound out of tune with themselves above the fifth fret. Splitting the saddle lets each group be intonated properly, so chords up the neck stay in agreement. The nut is synthetic bone, cut 47.6 mm wide to give twelve strings sensible room, and the courses are spaced so your fretting hand can still find single notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTK-40D: tuner, EQ and feedback control on board\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTakamine's TK-40D preamp sits in the upper bass bout and covers everything a working player needs. There is a chromatic tuner built in, a three-band EQ with its own gain trim so you can match the guitar to whatever you are plugged into, and a mid contour switch that scoops or fills the midrange in one movement. A notch filter is there for the moment a jumbo body starts to feed back at stage volume — a big soundbox is loud, and that is exactly the body shape that finds a resonant frequency in a small room. An EQ bypass switch sends a flat signal to the front of house when the engineer would rather do the shaping themselves. Takamine has been building preamps into its own guitars for decades, and this is the same system found across the upper G Series.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eDressed the way a G70 should be\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe slim maple neck carries a bound laurel fingerboard with a 12-inch radius — flat enough for comfortable barre chords, which is most of what a twelve-string does. Position markers are pearloid dots, with an abalone \"reversed mountain\" inlay at the twelfth fret, and the headstock wears a dark black walnut cap, cream binding and the gold Takamine script. Gold die-cast tuners with pearl buttons handle twelve strings' worth of tension, and the scale is 644 mm. A burgundy pearloid pickguard, gloss natural finish and multi-ply purfling finish it off.
