Taylor T5 Custom

A fully-hollow sapele body meets your choice of a spruce, figured maple, or figured Hawaiian koa top, making the Taylor T5 as irresistible as it is inspiring. Gold-plated hardware and the T5 Custom's Artist inlay add even more appeal and depth, as you explore endless acoustic and electric tones.

A sapele body provides the ideal tonal and structural properties that enable the T5 to perform in both acoustic and electric environments. For the T5 Custom, we offer a Sitka spruce top or opt for the extra sizzle and style of a Hawaiian koa or maple top. Because the T5 is a true hollowbody, the top acts as a soundboard that helps shape its versatile range of tones.
