PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The T5 Custom is a benchmark of guitar design and performance. Stylized f-holes flank the bridge, while Taylor's intricate Artist inlays progress up the fretboard. The fully-hollow Sapele body and Spruce top combine with Taylor's 5-way pickup to create a guitar that's capable of pristine acoustic sounds and high-gain electric sounds, through both acoustic and electric amps.

Taylor T5 Electric Guitars
The next generation of electric guitar is here. Take your tone from crunchy electric to strumming acoustic and everything in between, using the T5's proprietary humbucking pickups and body sensor. It's pure analog tone for today's guitar player, with no catches and no compromises.

The Acoustic and Electric Worlds Have Merged
Thirty years ago, Taylor couldn't have imagined building an electric guitar. Now, after a relentless pursuit of innovation, the Taylor T5 electric guitar feels like a natural next step.

A lot can happen in the course of 3 decades. They listened closely as playing styles evolved and the line between acoustic and electric began to blur. They evolved, too. Taylor honed their craft, inventing new pickups and pushing technology into totally new territory. The time for a guitar with real electric and acoustic tones has arrived.

Beginning with a fully-hollow thinline body that makes your acoustic tone authentic, they designed the Taylor T5 to perform equally well through both electric and acoustic amps.

Thanks to its humbucking pickups and proprietary body sensor, the Taylor T5 electric guitar produces a versatile range of pure analog tones from strumming acoustic to crunch electric and everything in between. No catches, no compromises. One flick of its 5-way switch and you're on your way.

Available in T5 Standard and T5 Custom configurations, the T5 features sapele back and sides with your choice of spruce, maple, or koa tops as well as stylized f-holes, 5-way pickup, electric Nanoweb coated Elixir Strings, Taylor T-Lock neck joint, and a variety of sunburst and colored finishes.

What's your tone today? Where do you want to take it tomorrow? Wherever you're going, the Taylor T5 electric guitar will help you get there.
