The Ultimate Hybrid Axe
This pre-owned 2017 Taylor T5z Pro is a chameleon, a true jack-of-all-trades that blends searing electric tones and authentic acoustic resonance into one gorgeous package. The figured maple top with its rich Tobacco Sunburst finish isn’t just for looks; it adds a bright, articulate snap to the warm, balanced foundation of the sapele body. This isn’t just a guitar, it’s a complete tonal toolkit for the modern player.
Shape-Shifting T5 Electronics
The magic is in the electronics. A clever five-way switch lets you navigate a spectrum of sounds you’d typically need multiple guitars for. Position 1 gives you a clean, high-definition acoustic sound from the body sensor. Positions 2, 3, and 4 start blending in the concealed neck and visible bridge humbuckers for everything from warm, round jazz tones to gritty, punchy rock rhythms. Position 5 unleashes the full-throated roar of the bridge humbucker for solos that cut through any mix. It’s all controlled by simple volume, bass, and treble knobs that feel intuitive and powerful.
Effortless Playability
Taylor built their name on feel, and this T5z Pro is no exception. The sapele neck has a comfortable carve that electric players will love, while the ebony fingerboard provides a slick, fast playing surface. The Venetian cutaway offers unrestricted access to the upper frets, making complex chords and high-flying solos feel effortless. It’s a guitar that just gets out of your way and lets you play.
