This 5-string edition of the Jacob Collier Signature Model is inspired by a custom 5-string Taylor acoustic guitar that the acclaimed singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and producer has been playing for several years. Designed with Jacob, the JCSM-5 features Taylor’s compact Grand Concert body style and is crafted with solid, Select-grade Hawaiian koa top, back and sides that display rich variegation. The ebony chosen for the fretboard, bridge and headstock overlay features natural marbling, showcasing a blend of espresso and caramel hues. The visual character of the woods gives each guitar its own unique personality, which means each owner will enjoy a truly one-of-a-kind instrument to inspire their musical pursuits.

Like Jacob’s personal Taylor guitar, the JCSM-5 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.
