Taylor has done something unprecedented in their line - what was a
Limited Edition T5 Electric guitar is now a regular model designed to
compare to their 300-400 Series acoustics. Never before has there been
a T5 in a price range under $1500! They did a few things to help hit
the price range - firstly, instead of spruce, koa or maple, it's got a
solid Ovangkol Top (which is beautiful!) and a Sapele Mahogany body. This new version also has slotted diamond inlays on the fretboard. It
has no binding and has a matte (not gloss) finish. The result is
beautiful. Many people who have walked by it have been stopped in
their tracks by it's simple elegance. You'll be knocked out by it's
looks and it's tone. Like the other T5's this beauty has a wealth of
natural tones that will serve you well for rock, folk, country, blues,
jazz or whatever you want to throw at it.
It comes with a nice Taylor Gigbag and the jealous glares of other players for miles around.
