Description

The electric 12-string playing experience doesn’t get much better than what you’ll find on the 2022 T5z Custom koa top acoustic-electric guitar, which boasts a gorgeous flamed koa top with a shaded edgeburst. Like its 6-string counterpart, the 12-string is equipped with a three-pickup configuration of an acoustic body sensor, concealed neck humbucker and visible bridge humbucker, plus five-way switching and onboard tone controls, making this arguably the versatile acoustic-electric 12-string around. It’s also the most playable, thanks to Taylor’s dual compensated saddle, which aligns the height of the fundamental and octave strings in a single plane across the top for a smooth, even attack and sound. Additional appointments include white binding, gold hardware and Taylor’s progressive Spires inlay scheme. The T5z-12 Custom koa top acoustic-electric guitar ships in a T5z Deluxe Brown hardshell case.

    I don't have a limited sound but I did have limited space in my flat. This has such a good build; low hum; sounds great acoustically, with headphones or hooked up to an amp; and, it's beautiful. I had my doubts until I went into a practice room- two hours later I bought it. Get one!
