Sound Pure's Take
About as comfortable and versatile as it gets, folks! Seriously, you can go from Chet-style pickin' to upper neck shredding with the literal flick of a switch. This one's not just for the jack-of-all-trades, though--whatever playing style you're working in, the buttery playability and new-but-familiar tonal options are sure to make your day better everytime you open the case!
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.
