T5 Electric / Acoustic

Soon after the T5 hit the market in 2005, the music industry press nominated it for Electric Guitar of the Year. And Acoustic Guitar of the Year. Which pretty much sums it all up: the T5 is an electric/acoustic that defines the hybrid category. Today, the versatile T5 is the top-selling semi-hollow body guitar and the only one that uses all-magnetic pickups for both its electric and acoustic tones. That means real acoustic tones, real electric tones, and everything in between. The T5 also features proprietary Taylor pickups, 5-Way switch, and Taylor T-Lock neck joint.

And oh yeah, it won both awards.

T5-C1
A figured flame maple top adds another flavor of tone and another dimension in looks. The mother-of-pearl "Artist" inlay is standard.  Available in a variety of natural, sunburst, metallic, and translucent finishes.

Features:

Pickups
Thanks to its humbucking pickups, the T5 produces a versatile range of pure analog tones from strumming acoustic to crunchy electric and everything in between.

5-way Switching
From acoustic tones to '50s hollowbody with a slight scoop to a full and bright electric sound that's great for thick lead tones, youll get it all with a flick of the T5 switch.

Position 1) Under-Fretboard Humbucker and Neck Humbucker in series The body sensor is replaced by a visible Neck Humbucker that, when combined with the invisible Under-Fretboard Humbucker, creates tones that are warm, round, full and fat. You'll find that this position makes the T5 sound even bigger than it is.

Position 2) Under-Fretboard Humbucker Activating the neck pickup on its own, this is a great position for solos and a good place to experiment with the tone controls. Try rolling back the Treble knob for darker tones.

Position 3) Bridge Humbucker
Move into the bridge pickup zone and one of the most versatile tonal ranges. Position 3 will go from "spanky" and clean, all the way to "full-tilt crunch." Start out with the Volume at the detent (center) then roll it up to "push" the amp.

Position 4) Bridge Humbucker and Under-Fretboard Humbucker in parallel The neck pickup is re-activated and runs in parallel with the bridge pickup. You might find it reminiscent of a '50s hollowbody with a slight scoop. In Position 4 you'll find one of many unique T5 tones

Position 5) Bridge Humbucker and Under-Fretboard Humbucker in series The neck and bridge pickups are now running in series, creating a full and bright sound that's great for thick lead tones. Change the Volume settings and watch its "personality" change.
