After lusting for one these over the past seven years I gave in to weakness. I stopped by Sweetwater yesterday
to talk to them about a neck reset on my martin..I should not be allowed to set foot in there..and ended up walking out of the store with this.  




I love the natural wood look.

Nice looking guitar.

Sweetwater has someone capable of martin neck resets? I didn't even realize they had a retail store.

Wow. That is very unique looking. Gorgeous, really.

Acoustic with a pick-up or semi-hollow body electric?

I rarely play acoustic and I'm jelly.



Edit- On further research, I play electric/acoustic even less, but still jelly.

Sweetwater has a full service dept. As well as professional recording studios and facilities for live performances. They have hosted and recorded lots of big names in their facilities. Their warehouse and shipping dept is on site as well. They will go to the warehouse and pull a guitar out of stock for you to play. I picked two from their inventory for them to bring out to try. Sweetwater is a class act. If you are ever in Fort Wayne Indiana I would highly recommend stopping in.

The T5 z is a full hollow body thin line acoustic and is fully electric with two thin line stacked humbuckers. Only one of the humbuckers is visible. The other one is under the fretboard. It has a version of Taylors acoustic expression system for the acoustic side of its sound.

Hell, I should not be allowed on their site.  They make it way too enticing with their high quality photos.  I can't tell you how many times I've added something to the cart, only to take it out after thinking about how bad in the doghouse I'd be
