A quilted maple top and maple body make this our first all-maple T5. Maple is known for its strong projection and precise overtones, and on electric guitar necks for its strength and flexibility. Pure analog acoustic and electric voices are within easy reach with the 5-way pickup switch. Choose between a 6- or 12-string, full-body Vintage Honey Sunburst or a Vintage Cherry Sunburst (top only). Gold hardware and pearl leaf inlays enhance the beauty of the vintage finishes.

T5 Thinline
Truly designed with the player in mind, the T5's thinline, fully-hollow body is sleek and comfortable. At 2.35 inches deep, the T5’s subtle body contours are a testament to the detail and care that shape its design.
T5 Electronics
The T5 uses a combination of proprietary pickups for a versatile range of acoustic and electric sounds. A hidden neck pickup and visible bridge pickup take advantage of the latest technology, utilizing Samarium Cobalt magnets and humbucking coils. A sensor reads the movement of the top, adding even more warmth to your acoustic tone. Toggle between pickup/sensor combinations via the 5-way switch for an impressive range of acoustic and electric tones.
Gloss Top, Back & Sides
The finish used to create this guitar's lustrous gloss top, back, and sides was developed at Taylor for maximum durability and resistance to cold-checking. This ultra violet-cured finish is also more environmentally friendly than traditional lacquer finishes.
