review TAYLOR ACADEMY SERIES 10E & 12E
2. In place of the
standard ES2’s bass
control, the ES-B
offers a chromatic
tuner leaving a
streamlined tone/
volume layout found in
some of the Academy
series’ rivals. Life
from its two CR2032
batteries can be
conserved with an
automatic switch-off
after three minutes
3. Both these Academy
models continue
Taylor’s partnership
with Elixir, shipping
with Phosphor Bronze
Light strings that feel
very well paired with
the bright character
of these guitars
4. Taylor’s 100/200
tuners on the
Academy Series
have an 18:1 ratio
