Few woods conjure up reactions like maple. Between its crisp, bright tone and dramatic, variegated figure it’s easy to see why. The T5 Custom (T5-C1) takes full advantage of maple’s appeal, playing nicely off the sharp lines of the f-holes and elegant “Spire” inlays. A variety of vibrant color options highlight maple's striking personality.
