Description
Somewhere between an electric guitar and acoustic guitar, we have this wonderful Taylor T5z Classic. Designed to bridge the gap between both instruments, the T5z is a ton of fun to play.
The T5z is fully hollow – crafted from a stunning Hawaiian Koa top and sapele back and sides. Supported by T5z bracing, the guitar is structurally sound, resonant, and full of tone. The body is completed by 2 f-holes and a comfy Venetian cutaway. Its neck is a shorter 24-7/8-inch scale length and features a slimmer neck profile – inspired by electrics. The neck is topped by a ebony fingerboard and is crowned with jumbo frets.
Under the hood, the T5z electronics allow the user to select between a fully acoustic/electric sound, or a combination of both thanks to the 2 humbuckers (hidden neck, visible bridge) and acoustic body sensors. Tone are accessible from the 5-way selector switch on the side of the body and can be controlled further with the volume, bass, and treble controls. Strings are loaded into the ebony bridge and are strung to pitch with the Taylor satin black tuning machines.
Complete with a Taylor Aerocase, the T5z is ready to handle just about any gig or recording session imaginable.
