Description
The Taylor Custom #37 CT5z B4037 brings a luxurious blend of acoustic warmth and electric versatility to the iconic T5z hollowbody, featuring stunning tonewoods and custom aesthetics. This custom model showcases a richly figured Big Leaf maple top with a striking Midnight Sapphire finish, complemented by a shaded edgeburst and a gloss finish for an eye-catching, sophisticated look. Paired with a lightweight Urban Ash body, this guitar delivers a balanced tonal profile with natural warmth and clear highs, perfect for blending genres and exploring dynamic tones.
Designed for smooth, comfortable playability, this T5z is outfitted with chamfered, unbound edges that highlight the maple’s natural figure, along with an integrated armrest for enhanced support. The 24-7/8” scale length, slim neck profile, and jumbo frets on a West African Crelicam ebony fretboard offer an effortless playing experience, whether you’re fingerpicking or strumming. Premium details like the Italian acrylic faux-pearl peghead logo, faux pearl/silver Spires fretboard inlays, and sleek black purfling around the top and F-holes elevate the guitar’s visual appeal.
Equipped with Taylor’s proprietary T5 electronics and five-way switching, this model unlocks a versatile tonal palette, allowing you to shift seamlessly between acoustic warmth and electric edge. The Taylor nickel tuning machines with nickel buttons ensure precise tuning stability, while the white TUSQ nut and white Micarta saddle enhance tonal clarity and sustain. The Custom #37 comes protected in a deluxe Taylor hardshell case, making it a show-stopping piece for stage and studio alike.
