          Description

          Taylor's groundbreaking T5z Classic acoustic electric guitar bridges the gap between acoustic and electric, offering an unparalleled range of tones in one instrument. The T5z Classic boasts a hollow sapele body and mahogany top that resonate with the natural acoustic tone of a fine auditorium guitar. However, its versatile five-way switching and dual humbucker pickups, including a concealed neck pickup and visible bridge pickup, unlock a universe of electric tones from crisp and cutting to warm and gritty.

          Versatile Electronics Provide A Universe of Electric and Acoustic Tones

          At the heart of the T5z Classic's sonic versatility are its dual humbucker pickups and five-way switching system. Two pickups, including a concealed neck humbucker and visible bridge humbucker, produce a range of electric guitar tones from bright and cutting to thick and saturated. An acoustic body sensor system also delivers the resonant, shimmering tones of a fine acoustic. The five-way switch allows seamless transitions between acoustic and electric tones for unlimited sonic possibilities on stage or in the studio. Onboard bass, treble and volume controls provide even more tonal shaping.

          Sleek, Comfortable Body Inspired by the Taylor Grand Auditorium

          The T5z Classic features a stylish and ergonomic hollow sapele body inspired by Taylor's popular Grand Auditorium design. Stylized f-holes allow the tropical mahogany top to resonate freely, producing a colorful voice with rich sustain. The compact body contours to the player's body for a comfortable feel during long performances. Visually striking, the T5z Classic's unbound body and satin finish highlight the natural beauty of the tonewoods.

          Fast Sapele Neck and Ebony Fingerboard for Effortless Playability

          The T5z Classic's fast sapele neck and ebony fingerboard provide a playing experience that will feel instantly familiar to electric guitarists. A short 24.875" scale length, 12" radius and jumbo frets make string bending and soloing a breeze. The slim profile neck allows for speedy riffing and shredding when desired. The unbound fingerboard's dark ebony wood esthetically matches the body's minimalist style.

          Powerful Tone from a Mahogany Top and Sapele Back and Sides

          The T5z Classic owes its robust tone to choice tonewoods, including a tropical mahogany top and sapele back and sides. The mahogany top produces a warm yet articulate voice with a strong fundamental and rich overtones. Sapele, a dense African hardwood similar to mahogany, provides a controlled bass response and clear treble register. Together, these tonewoods yield a balanced tone suitable for any musical style.
