Description

Taylor is excited to add more variety to their family of hybrid electric-acoustic guitars with the new, ultra-playable, T5z-12 Classic DLX Special Edition. These hollowbody 12-string guitars are the first in the T5z Series to feature the innovative reverse-strung configuration first introduced in the Builder’s Edition 12-string acoustic guitars, a feature that recalls a long heritage of 12-string electrics strung with the heavier string placed on the top of each octave pair. That change results in a meatier, warmer response that adds a full-bodied character to each and every note. These Special Edition models boast the same tone-blending electronics that have made the T5z a hit with players seeking a diverse array of sonic flavors, composed of an acoustic body sensor, a concealed neck humbucker and a visible humbucker, all controlled by five-way switching. The result is a broad spectrum of sound ranging from mellow acoustic tones to a fiery electric register, along with settings that perfectly mix the two. Each T5z-12 Classic DLX Special Edition model features a slender neck with jumbo frets for a supremely fast, relaxed feel, plus a smooth cutaway that provides comfortable access to the highest notes. Appointments for these models include black fretboard binding, double F-holes, nickel mini-tuners, ebony bridge pins, and a full-body gloss finish.
