Taylor T5z 2014 Borrego Red Flamed Maple

I have had the pleasure of owning several T5 instruments from Taylor and hands down this one is the best one I’ve ever experienced.This Taylor plays extremely fast because of the fantastic action. You can experiment with all five of the switch positions to give you close renditions of core guitars like a Gretsch, Fenders, Gibson, and don’t forget the acoustic tone available in this guitar. It’s a great option for you to cover all your bases on the weekend gigs. I have performed a full fretboard conditioning, fret polish, full body polish and will install a fresh set of strings prior to shipping. Before shipping I will remove the battery and enclose it in the case storage compartment for safety. The guitar will be shipped out quickly and packaged to ensure a safe arrival to your destination. If you’re interested, send me a message to ask any questions or concerns you may have. I always enjoy hearing from other musicIans.Specifications from Taylor:Flamed maple tops distinguish Taylor's T5z Pro thinline acoustic-electric guitar. The unique T5z features include a more compact body than the original T5, plus a 12-inch fretboard radius and jumbo frets, which together provide a familiar feel for electric players. Like the T5, the T5z is equipped with a three-pickup configuration of an acoustic body sensor, a concealed neck humbucker, and a visible bridge humbucker, plus five-way switching and onboard tone controls, giving your an incredibly versatile electric/acoustic guitar. Appointments on Taylor's T5z Pro include nickel hardware, crisp white binding, and a Spires inlay scheme.

Tones are selected via the easy access 5-way switch located on the side of the guitar. Two pickups - a concealed neck humbucker and a visible bridge humbucker - produce a truly impressive range of electric guitar tone, while the an acoustic body sensor system delivers breathtaking acoustic sounds.
