The Taylor T5z Custom represents Taylor’s forward-thinking approach to guitar design, blending acoustic resonance and electric performance into a sleek semi-hollow instrument. Built with an urban ash body and a beautifully figured Hawaiian koa top, the T5z delivers a lightweight, comfortable feel while maintaining impressive tonal depth and clarity, all wrapped in a smooth gloss finish.

Designed for effortless playability, the T5z features Taylor’s slim T5 carve neck and a compact body profile that feels instantly familiar to electric players while remaining inviting to acoustic musicians. The bolt-on neo-tropical mahogany neck and Crelicam ebony fingerboard provide a fast, responsive playing surface, making this guitar equally comfortable for intricate lead work, rhythm playing, or extended sessions on stage.

At the core of the T5z Custom is Taylor’s proprietary T5 pickup system, which combines a hidden neck humbucker, a visible bridge humbucker, and an acoustic body sensor, all selectable via a 5-way switch. This innovative setup allows players to move seamlessly from rich acoustic-like textures to full electric tones, making the T5z an ideal choice for performers seeking unmatched versatility in a single, refined instrument.
