Sound Pure's Take
Conditon: Used, Very Good (neck side hinge on case is missing)
Gorgeous! This T5 is playing better than it did brand new after a partial refret and setup from our luthier. Gratifying playability and a bright, lively tone are the two immediate takeaways, regardless of the player. Whether you're doing Chet-style pickin', pursuing various forms of chord melody stuff, or working on new material as a singersongwriter, this beauty will follow you every step of the way!
SP Luthier Notes: Partial refret (7) and setup
From Taylor Guitars
Hawaiian koa is a tropical hardwood in a category all its own. Gorgeous figure and a sweet tone create the allure, making it a favorite among Taylor players. On the T5-C2 it is nothing short of high-performance art.
