Taylor Jacob Collier Signature 6-String Electro-Acoustic

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.

• Stunning Koa - 100% select Hawaiian koa body construction provides a balanced sound with resonant depth and articulate treble presence
• V-Class Bracing - Grand Concert body is easy to play, while V-Class bracing promotes fantastic projection

• Gotoh Hardware - Strong Gotoh 510 tuning machines keep you sounding your best onstage and at home

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.
