A one-of-a-kind acoustic-electric with exceptional looks and versatility.

The Taylor T5z Custom Limited Edition acoustic-electric guitar provides an unparalleled range of tones in an unforgettable package. Limited to only 6 instruments, this stunning guitar features a unique Caribbean Edge burst finish, a hand-selected AA quilted big leaf maple top and an urban ash body that produces a rich, resonant tone. To complement the eye-catching burst, intricate Sea Forest Vine inlays and a mother-of-pearl peghead logo add visual appeal. The T5z's sonic versatility comes from its dual humbuckers and acoustic pickup configuration, yielding an array of timbres. Along with its fast, slender neck and jumbo frets, contoured edges and an integrated armrest create a seamless playing experience as you explore diverse musical genres. With its striking burst finish and inlays, this guitar is sure to turn heads wherever you perform.

Premium Materials Shape Signature Tone

The Big Leaf maple top and ash body of the T5z provide a warm, focused tone with ample headroom. The neo-trpoical mahogany neck has a comfortable T5z profile so you can play for hours. 21 frets give you room to create. The premium West African ebony fingerboard is smooth and durable under your fingers. Together, these high-quality woods create the Taylor tone you've come to love.

Versatile Electronics Shape Your Sound

With a three-way pickup selector switch, you can instantly change between the T5z Custom's dual humbuckers and acoustic pickup. The humbuckers deliver a crisp, articulate tone for solos and full chords, while the acoustic pickup authentically captures the resonance of the ash body. Blend the pickups together for a range of tones ideal for any musical genre. Additional tone control knobs provide further sound-shaping possibilities, allowing you to dial in the perfect tone for any song.

Premium Appointments Complement Superb Playability

The T5z's contoured body edges, integrated armrest and fast neck maximize comfort. Jumbo frets make bending and vibrato effortless. Intricate inlays and a mother-of-pearl logo reflect the guitar's custom nature. A deluxe hardshell case protects your investment. Visually and sonically stunning, the Taylor T5z Custom Limited Edition acoustic-electric guitar inspires you to push creative boundaries.
