The Taylor T5z Custom represents the pinnacle of hybrid electric-acoustic design, offering seamless versatility for players who demand both the warmth of an acoustic and the power of an electric guitar. Its lightweight Shamel ash body and Hawaiian koa top deliver a rich tonal palette that blends airy resonance with crisp articulation, while the hollowbody construction enhances natural sustain and harmonic complexity. The guitar’s three-pickup system — a concealed neck humbucker, a visible humbucker in the middle, and an acoustic body sensor — provides an extraordinary range of tonal possibilities, easily navigated through intuitive five-way switching.

Visually, the T5z Custom is stunning, featuring a Shaded Edge Burst finish that highlights the exotic figuring of its koa top, accented by white binding and an elegant gloss finish. Comfort-focused design details like chamfered edges, a contoured armrest, and a fast-playing ebony fretboard with jumbo frets make it an ideal companion for live performance, studio work, or songwriting sessions.

Perfectly balancing acoustic warmth and electric drive, the T5z Custom is a guitar that inspires creativity and feels effortless in any setting — a flagship Taylor design that blurs the line between tradition and innovation. This guitar bridges worlds — offering the shimmering clarity of an acoustic, the punch of an electric, and the flexibility of both — and it’s available right now at Haggerty’s Music.
