Guitarist and longtime Taylor product specialist Marc Seal walks through the different pickup positions and expansive tonal palette of the Taylor T5z with the help of touring/session guitarist and producer Sam Yun (Demi Lovato, JoJo, Tayla Parx). Marc and Sam demonstrate why our hybrid hollowbody electric makes such a versatile tool for guitarists, delivering a full range of amplified acoustic and electric sounds. Sam is playing our T5z Pro Denim model, featuring a figured maple top and hollow sapele body. The three-pickup configuration incorporates a magnetic acoustic body sensor, a high-definition neck humbucker (concealed under the fretboard extension) and a high-definition bridge humbucker. Five-way switching dials up this array of settings:
Position 1: Neck humbucker and body sensor (closest to neck)
Position 2: Neck humbucker only
Position 3: Bridge humbucker
Position 4: Neck and bridge humbuckers in parallel
Position 5: Neck and bridge humbuckers in series
Marc also explains how to use the volume and tone controls (bass and treble) to explore other tasty tonal flavors. Notable design specs include a 12-inch fretboard radius, jumbo frets, 24-7/8-inch scale length, 1-11/16 nut width and electric medium-gauge strings (.011–.049).
