T5 series
More than ever before, guitar players are
blending acoustic and electric textures together
on stage, often within the same song. From a
solo artist looking for a versatile performance
guitar to rock bands with multiple guitarists
who layer their sound, the Taylor T5 was
designed as a full-range electric/acoustic guitar.
The hollowbody hybrid incorporates three
pickups — one magnetic acoustic sensor and
two humbuckers — and is equally compatible
with acoustic amps, a PA system, and electric
amps. A five-way switch allows easy access to
acoustic and electric tones, especially with an
A/B/Both box. Choose from Standard, Custom
and Classic models, available in a variety of
woods and colors, and including 12-strings.
For 2012, we debut our new Spires fretboard
inlay on T5 Custom models.
