The Taylor T5 C2 Custom Koa occupies a fascinating space between acoustic and electric guitar design. Its laminate koa top and sapele body give it a distinctive foundation, while the Edgeburst finish and carefully appointed details make this an instrument with plenty of visual presence. This pre owned example shows light wear consistent with gentle use, with all cosmetic damage documented in the photoset.
Koa Top and Sapele BodyThe laminate koa top is paired with a sapele body, bringing two familiar acoustic guitar materials together in the T5 design. Wood selection is only one part of an acoustic instrument's overall voice, with construction and design playing equally important roles. Here, those materials are incorporated into Taylor's distinctive T5 format rather than a conventional acoustic body.
Mahogany Neck and Ebony FretboardA mahogany neck with an ebony fretboard gives the T5 C2 Custom a classic combination of materials. Mother of pearl and abalone New Artist pattern fretboard inlays add an elegant visual element, while white plastic binding runs along the top, fretboard, and headstock. Gold Taylor Gotoh tuning machines and an ebony bridge complete the appointments.
Taylor T5 Pickup System and Five Way SwitchingThis T5 C2 Custom combines a magnetic body sensor, single coil bridge pickup, and concealed humbucker with five way switching. The result is a pickup configuration designed around multiple voices within a single instrument, making the T5 an intriguing choice for players who want an acoustic electric guitar with a decidedly unconventional approach.

With its Edgeburst finish, koa top, detailed inlay work, gold hardware, and unusual pickup configuration, this T5 C2 Custom offers a distinctive combination of Taylor acoustic design and electric guitar functionality.
