Taylor T5 Series Electric-Acoustic Guitars
Taylor's Elegant Interpretation of the Electric Guitar
Blurring the lines between electric and acoustic guitars, Taylor's T5 series expertly blends the qualities of both to create truly unique instruments. Pick up a T5 and effortlessly alternate between searing electric leads and subtle, fingerpicked acoustic passages with the flick of a switch. Perfect for players who crave a variety of sounds, Taylor T5 guitars are the ultimate choice for tonal versatility.
While the groundbreaking T5 model keeps the larger body design and feel of a regular acoustic, the T5z pushes even further into the world of the electric guitar. Staying true to the electronic features of the original T5, the T5z will make electric players feel right at home, thanks to the compact body size, 12-inch fretboard radius and jumbo frets.
