T3 series
Taylor’s innovative design imprint is all over
the T3, capturing all the great tonal character
of the semi-hollowbody sound and pushing
it in inspiring new directions. This year we
expand the T3’s pickup options beyond our
high-definition humbuckers to include a choice
of mini humbuckers, which blend power
and clarity, or vintage alnico humbuckers,
which deliver a warm, classic humbucker
sound. A coil-splitting application turns those
humbuckers into single coil pickups, while a
push/pull tone knob enables truly uniquely
tone-shaping control. Hardware refinements
include a chrome roller-style bridge with
two tailpiece options: a stoptail or a Bigsby
vibrato tailpiece, whose integration with the
roller bridge assures pitch and tuning stability.
Whatever your musical style — rockabilly, jazz,
country, hard rock, surf music — great tones
are always at your fingerstips with the T3.
