With the
Taylor T5z Classic Koa
, the Californian manufacturer presents a
hybrid guitar
that authentically reproduces the sound of an acoustic guitar as well as the sound of an electric guitar thanks to its clever design and pickup assembly. A
hollow construction
consisting of a
Koa top
with
sound holes
and a
Sapele body
gives the guitar the perfect foundation for a rich and dynamic tone. Equipped with a
humbucker hidden under the neck/body junction
, a
lipstick-style humbucker
and a
body sensor
, the T5z Classic offers the possibility of playing either expressive electric guitar solos or lush rhythm guitar.
Volume, bass and treble pots
are mounted on the top for general adjustment. To switch between the three pickups, the manufacturer installs a
5-way switch
in the frame, which can be used to control the individual pickups and one pair each. The
bolt-on mahogany neck
with its exquisite
ebony fingerboard
, combined with a
scale length of 632 mm
and a
nut width of 42.8 mm
, ensures optimum playability on all
21 frets
. Precise
die-cast tuners
on the characteristic Taylor headstock round off this instrument. The Taylor T5z Classic Koa comes with a sturdy
case
.
