Taylor T5-C5 Custom Macassar Ebony Top Electric Acoustic
Item: TOT5C5
More than ever before, guitar players are blending acoustic and electric textures together on stage. From a solo artist looking for a versatile performance guitar to rock bands with multiple guitarists who layer the sound, the Taylor T5-C5 is designed as a full-range electric/acoustic guitar. The hollowbody hybrid incorporates three pickups; one magnetic acoustic sensor and two humbuckers. The T5 is equally compatible with acoustic amps, PA systems and electric guitar amps. The five-way switch allows easy access to acoustic and electric tones, especially with an A/B/Both box. The T5-C5 also features a fully hollow body, an active soundboard with a compound radius, a Taylor T-Lock neck joint, Taylor gold tuners, “Artist” inlays, and that magnificent Macassar ebony top.
The T5 electronics were inspired by the revolutionary Taylor Expression System, and then were custom designed to bring out the best electric and acoustic tones from the guitar. Thanks to its humbucking pickups and proprietary body sensor, the T5 produces a versatile range of pure analog tones from strumming acoustic to crunchy electric, and everything in between. From acoustic tones to '50s hollowbody with a slight scoop to a full and bright electric sound that's great for thick lead tones, you¹ll get it all with a flick of the T5 5-way switch
