Product Description
Taylor is thrilled to introduce the Jacob Collier Signature Model, designed with the visionary artist and multi-GRAMMY-winning innovator who continually pushes musical boundaries. The signature model comes in two different configurations: a 5-string tuned to DAEAD (the lower/bass strings are tuned in fifths, while the upper/treble strings are tuned in fourths) and a more traditional 6-string strung in standard tuning.
The 5-string edition is inspired by a custom 5-string Taylor acoustic guitar that Collier has been playing for several years. “I dreamed of this guitar tuning for many, many years before [the guitar] existed,” Collier says. “And then one day, I asked Taylor, ‘How would you feel about putting a five-string guitar on a sixstring neck tuned in a very strange way, with exactly the same range as a normal guitar, but just with a different set of intervals?’ And they said yes, which changed my whole life.”
Like Collier’s custom Taylor guitar, the 5-string is tuned to DAEAD to offer players the same unique voicing he loves. For beginners, this makes the guitar more accessible with simpler chord voicings. For more advanced players, it offers a whole new tonal palette to explore, which promises to spark fresh musical discoveries.
Both the 5-string and 6-string editions feature a Grand Concert body crafted from solid, Select-grade Hawaiian koa and incorporate a matte finish. The fretboard, bridge and peghead each showcase ebony that was specially chosen for its rich variegation.
Both models come with Jacob’s signature aesthetic touches, including a custom koa truss rod cover with a laser-etched JC logo and a custom interior label that also sports the logo. Other visual details on both guitars include an understated black & maple singlering rosette, black soundboard edge trim, mother-of-pearl 4mm dot fretboard inlays and a mother-of-pearl Taylor peghead logo.
Equipped with ultra-precise Gotoh 510 antique chrome tuners with matching buttons and LR Baggs Element VTC electronics, the Jacob Collier Signature Model delivers a natural acoustic tone when plugged in. It ships in a brown AeroCase for lightweight, durable protection.
