As versatile and comfortable as it is unique, Taylor's T5z has something for everybody. Whether you're an acoustic player looking for vintage hollowbody tone combined with Taylor's trademark buttery playability or an electric player looking for versatile acoustic tonality that can function at high volumes, this fascinating hybrid from Taylor is sure to satisfy.
From Taylor Guitars
A figured koa top with a shaded edgeburst evokes the exotic beauty of Hawaii on the T5z Custom. Distinctive features compared to the original T5 include a more compact body, a 12-inch fretboard radius, and jumbo frets, which together deliver a familiar size and setup for electric players. Like the T5, the T5z is equipped with a three-pickup configuration of an acoustic body sensor, a concealed neck humbucker, and a visible bridge humbucker, plus five-way switching and onboard tone controls, giving players an incredibly versatile electric/acoustic guitar. Additional appointments include white binding, gold hardware and Taylor’s progressive Spires inlay scheme. The guitar ships in a T5z hardshell case.
