SO I had my "forever" guitar when I bought my 2014 812e 12 fret
BUT...
it always bothered me...both in playing and the thought/look that it didnt have the cutaway (got a good deal so jumped at trying the 12 fret even without the CE)
well I found a better deal on one WITH a CE and was able to sell mine on the same day!! so I NOW have my forever guitar...
a 2016 812ce 12 fret :)

let me say...playing a 12 fret without the cutaway for 2 months then switching...feels like someone took handcuffs off me! so much freedom...Im a happy camper now!

Congratulations Bmoney. Wow, that is a real looker for sure, and being what it is I am sure it sounds fantastic.

Glad it all worked out for you. She looks real nice and probably sounds real nice too!

Gorgeous guitar. It's funny how our preference swing back and forth over time. My first Taylor, the 214ce, was a cutaway. Then I decided that I only want non-cutaway guitars, which is what all of my subsequent guitars were. Following my custom Kronbauer in a 12-fret, I decided that there was a bit more restriction without a cutaway, so the last guitar I bought I made sure it had one. Very glad I did.
Either way, enjoy the new guitar!

Congrats on a beauty! Did you notice much, if any, difference tonally between them? Not all guitars in a series will sound identical. I have a GA3 and love its tone. I opted to get a GA3e, but was very surprised when the second one didn't sound anything like the first.
Enjoy your gorgeous 812ce 12 fret! :)

Love me a Taylor GC 12-fret Cutaway! I have a Custom All-Mahogany 12 fret and a 562ce.

Sweet guitar, mine is my favorite guitar for sure. My “Wildwood” edition essentially means with Adirondack bracing, which is standard in yours. They sure sound and feel awesome. Enjoy.
