AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
AUSTRALIA'S #1 ACOUSTIC GUITAR SPECIALIST
JACOB COLLIER ACADEMY 22E 5-ST
The Taylor Jacob Collier Academy 22e 5-String brings one of modern music’s most creative tunings to an accessible, player-friendly acoustic-electric. Designed in collaboration with Jacob Collier, this compact Grand Concert model is built around his preferred DAEAD tuning, unlocking rich harmonic textures, extended bass response, and inspiring chordal possibilities. The solid walnut top paired with layered walnut back and sides delivers a warm, woody midrange with clear highs and a surprisingly full low end, making it equally suited to songwriting, alternate tunings, and expressive accompaniment.
Comfort and playability are central to the Academy 22e’s design. A slim Taylor neck profile makes fretting effortless, while the built-in beveled armrest provides a smooth, relaxed feel during long playing sessions. Fishman Presys VT electronics ensure natural amplified tone for stage or studio use, and understated visual details—such as the Baltic birch rosette and satin finish—keep the focus on sound and feel. Supplied with a padded gig bag, this is a uniquely inspiring instrument for players looking to explore new musical territory.
