Taylor Guitars was founded in 1974 by Bob Taylor and Kurt Listug, and has grown into the leading global builder of premium acoustic guitars. Renowned for blending modern, innovative manufacturing techniques with a master craftsman's attention to detail, Taylor acoustic guitars are widely considered among the best-sounding and easiest to play in the world, with Bob himself being known throughout the musical instrument industry as the visionary acoustic guitar manufacturer.

The Taylor T5z Classic has a more compact body than the original T5, and the ebony fretboard has jumbo frets. It is crafted with a mahogany top, and chrome hardware. A resonant, fully hollow thinline body with groundbreaking electronics is at the heart of the T5. Its comfort and playability will delight you, giving you the performance freedom of a solidbody with feel and sound of a beloved Taylor acoustic. Whether played through an electric or acoustic amp, it delivers a fantastic range of pure tones from smooth, strumming acoustic to crunchy electric chords. This is all possible because of the unique 5-way pickup system composed of a magnetic acoustic humbucker, magnetic electric humbucker, and a single Dynamic Body Sensor soundboard pickup, with a preamp system to dial in the exact tone you want. This deluxe edition of the mahogany-top T5z Classic sports a rich all-gloss body and shaded edgeburst finish adding refined character to the guitar’s vintage look.
