NEW Taylor 562ce 12 String! (Full Review)
It litterally sounds like a guitar with a chorus and slight reverb built in! OMG That sounds IMMACULATE!
I bought one used and when I play Boston songs or licks and other stuff it does have that chorus reverby effect it's great the guitar sounds even better playing it.
I played one of these. I can’t afford it, but it’s the most beautiful sounding 12 string I’ve ever played . For a 12 string I found it quite easy to play.
mine is coming aug 1st...cant wait..no I have not played 1 ..but own other Taylors
@@JayPooler Lucky man.
He starts playing at 4:11
I've had several 12 stringers over the last 50 years ... and THIS is definitely my favourite! I usually change the strings down to thinner gauges, but for this guitar, I tuned it down to Open D, to stick with the Elixir strings that came with it, as per Mr. Taylor's recommendation. And yes, definitely a beautiful sounding guitar!!
Man what a beautiful sound that guitar makes Wow be is all I can say ,I'm the world's biggest Taylor guitars fan.
Love the Elizabeth Cotten/Leo Kottke mix ! As for the guitar, it does sound beautiful. Mellow, warm and the right amount of sparkling.
Great to know you are out there doing these kind of reviews ... thanks!
...another fabulous sounding and good looking Taylor 12, I can see, hear the versatility of this thing and just why Tony loves it.
I just played one of these today at Rudy's Music in NYC and it was incredible. I felt the same way about it, I didn't want to stop playing it once I started.
I have the newer version, the one with six string end pins. It was the last of the 562 production models. Beautiful, plays great, sounds great.
Dude...you can really play a guitar beautifully. I wish I could play like that.
I still have my Yamaha 1970 12 string. Impossible to play but I love it. Time to buy a Taylor.
Hey Tony, now I know this review was a little while ago now but it would be super interesting to hear you review the V class 12 string that’s just come out for comparison. Currently there are very few videos out there on the new one, but I always look at your channel for acoustic guitar reviews so hopefully you can get your hands on one soon. Look forward to hearing it
Stephen Dixon Ditto!
'the start of love' i record w elec 12 string ALL the time. pure magic .. if you started singing like ledbetter, that's be sumthin.
This is the first video of yours I have ever watched. That was a great review. Very informative about the guitar. Liked and subscribed. Can't wait to see what else you have. This video was made five years ago
Wow. It is simultaneously full-bodied and jangly. Gotta get me one of these. ATTENTION CANADIANS: Bluedog Guitars has one of these (2016 model, exactly like this one) 10% off for Black Friday 2019
That first piece was perfect :)
The clarity from those nickle strings
Tony - I always enjoy and appreciate your reviews. There is just one thing I'd like to see, though. I would appreciate it if you would review a Larrivee acoustic occasionally. Now that you're no longer working for Music Villa, a store that doesn't stock Larrivee, might you be able to review a Larrivee once in a while? Seeing you go through your usual playing routine for demos/reviews on a Larrivee would bring me serious happiness. Peace and best wishes.
I can afford it and will be buying one for my son. He has nothing but electrics and needs an acoustic. He is trying to make up his mind between the 352, 362 and the 562. To me the 562 just sounds a lot warmer than the others
.. toitally agreed on sound after the first two notes, quite amazing!!
562ce vs 360e?? I'm about to hit the buy button on the 562 but just thought I'd ask your opinion first.. Which would you choose out of the two.. Cheers...
Which one did you buy
like to see reviews on the 356ce vs this also ! Need the cutaway
Woweee!!!!! I am saving up for that baby!
If this guitar was made with a natural finish I'd probably buy one.
Look at the 552ce
@@AlanSturgess same as 562 ? but the finish ?
Surprisingly good sounding.
It looks handy compared to the size in general with 12 string guitars
Excellent review - enjoyable and very informative. I've loved 12s since 1963 when I found an LP of instrumentals by Billy Strange (yes, I'm THAT retro). Still have it and am trying to decide if my wallet will stand the smack it would get by buying this 12. Mmmmm.
Hey dude great video! I'm curious what kind of video camera are you using? and is this filmed in 24p? Looks fantastic!
Can you do a review on a guitar from the Yamaha 800 series of guitars?
Thanks for yet another awesome review Tony! Any chance you might be reviewing the 520e anytime soon? Curious to know what your general take is on the mahogany 500 series.
This guitar is so beautiful
Great review I just got an Ibanez AE2412-NT and I love it.. Its a new model and would love to hear your review on it please..
Great reviews keep them coming! I have a review request! Can you review the all solid wood, Epiphone Masterworks AJ45ME side by wide with a Gibson J-45 Standard?
You used the phrase "hold on to it's clarity", interesting. I have a similar shaped all laminate 12 string which I really like, but it doesn't always hold on to it's clarity.
Tony did you ever buy one of these I have one on layaway at my local pawn shop can't wait to get it.Partly because of this review and availability and long layway.(2 months later I've got it out of layaway and can't beleive all the different tones I'm getting out of her. Chorus type and reverb effects I've never gotten out of any of my other 12 strings . I currently own 3 and there's been 2 others.)
Yamaha fs850 please!
I like the idea of a small 12 string that can be amped. But I wish there was a more economical version. Many of the design choices that inflate the price will have little imapct on the sound and playability. They are either purely aesthetic or else make only the slightest difference in tone.
Hey, Mark O., I had the opportunity to play the full Taylor line from 1xx to 9xx at a recent (07/2019) guitar show. There is definitely an easily perceived improvement in tone and responsiveness for each step. The 5xx series is where magic begins to happen; the 8xx is close to the magical quality of a vintage handmade instrument by a top luthier. :-). Remember, a fine guitar like this one is an investment; their value only increases over time. Much faster than inflation, and often faster than stocks or other financial products.
@@pickerdad8402 I bought a 12 fret 322 ce and it sounds and handles absolutely magical compared to my shitty Fender. compared it with a lot of others and seemed the best deal overall. maybe in 1-2 year if I improve a lot I'll buy a 900 series one:)
Hi, do you have a review on the Taylor 555 12string? Is it really necessary to tune the Taylor to E standard or stick with D tuning? I notice your using a micrphone. Are you recording the audio with that? I have 3 sets of Oktava MK- 012-01 with two attachments and have never used them. Thanks.
Alberto Mario What do you think? He has a microphone right in front of the guitar and you ask if he’s using it? No, of course he’s just got it there for decoration
Mario, I have a 1987 555 Jumbo 12 and it's fine in E standard. Adjusting the neck on a Taylor 12 is very easy. There are even instructions on CZcams via the Taylor factory. Just forget about barre chords on a 12. Kottke made me feel so much better after he confirmed that crisp barre chords are impossible on a 12. I always thought there was something wrong with my Taylor, but I was expecting the impossible.
nice to have one about 3" width
Interesting. I wonder if the string tension is less with the smaller scale.
It is.
Hey Tony! Which thumb pick are you using. Haven't really gotten into using a thumb pick and would like to start. Do you have any suggestions for a good thumb pick?
Best thumb picks are made by John Pearse. Next best Fred Kelly's slick pick. There are some boutique thumb picks out there for $35-$75 each but I don't think there any better than the two I listed.
Tony, how does the smaller body handle open G and D tunings? curious to know if a D on the 6th string still sounds good.
It’s royal !!
is the 562 the only one with 6 brige pins on the 12 string ?
like hear comparisons of this vs. kirk sands guitars. that are a more $$
Is playing a twelve string significantly harder than a normal 6 string?
Jacob Perez it’s definitely different but not much more difficult
As Leo Kottke said, "forget about barre chords on a 12 string". Very true.
No, not at all, its a little diffsrent, but a good 12 string will be easy to pick up
Ive got the giant bohemith taylor 12 string and would love a smaller one. Does this one have all the volume my big taylor has?
wonderful
Hey Tony,
I always have been a great fan of Taylor acoustic guitars, however never had one.
Now, I am just starting to learn first and after that, I am going to buy a Taylor Jumbo 12 string.
I have been looking online, trying to understand Jumbo models, and specs of each model. For example I don't know the difference between 855, 655, 455 or 355 etc.
Basically, my personal taste would be a Taylor 12 jumbo full body (non cutaway) all solid, but not new...probably something from 2006 back.
I would like to know which models were available, which types of wood were used back there, inlays available, specs wise and etc.
Can you suggest any link, or provide reading material to learn all the differences between the models?
Or even if you can tell me the whole story.
Thank you!
In some of these songs you're basically channeling Leo Kottke. Win.
Oktava :D
can compare the 356ce vs this 562ce ?
I do like the sound of this guitar. What is the list price of the guitar??
Hey Thomas! I just added the link to the current Amazon price in the description!
+AcousticLife.tv Hey Tony, Thank you my friend. I will check it out. Thanks for the videos also.
Do you review for Simon and Patrick 12s
wow!
Luminous !😄
very nice great
see no advantage of 6 bridge pins. saves money only; and easier to keep them seperate.
Try the Fender Villager :)
Whats the first song? is it eaven a song?
If only Esteban produced a 12 string!
that thingiy machingi is worth my car.
Ovation reviews???
Great Guitar. Just out of most peoples price range.....
Nice guitar but im not going to look it up im sure it is way out of my price range .
IMHO the taylor's sound better than the martins 100% of the time. they just ring and sing out.
I agree completely and I own both Taylor's and martin
Hey I have a question
Faintly banjo-esq tone. I heard this with Leo Kottke when he converted to Taylors. I think Taylor's signature brilliance is responsible.
LOVE TAYLOR GUITARS , BUT CANT STAND EXPRESSION 2 PREAMPS , WISH THEY WOULD HAVE STAYED WITH FISHMAN PICK UPS , BOUGHT 3 TAYLOR'S , SOLD 2 BECAUSE OF THE EXPRESSION TWO SYSTEM THEO ONE I KEPT HAD THE 1ST EXPRESSION SYSTEM , NO ISSUES ! WITH THAT ,
Still doesn't have that crisp, upper layer that a Guild has.
its not a guild.....I have a guild 12 love it but its a diff guitar, more a strummers guitar to my ear, had a Taylor LKSM12, a players guitar(sold it....mistake). Played on of these and it is simply remarkable.....It's on my list
Um ...Sub ? ,,,Uh. SUB !
I have a Sigma 12
Who can actually afford this shit?
