Tanglewood TW4 CE BLB Acoustic Electric Guitar w/ Bag

British brand Tanglewood introduces more affordable acoustic guitars in retro and modern designs.

The TW4 BLB is an electroacoustic guitar of the “Super Folk” type, i.e. an instrument with a narrower and shallower body than, for example, the Dreadnought. The front of the guitar is made of solid mahogany, while the back and sides are laminated mahogany. Twenty-one frets and position dots divide the composite fingerboard surface. A convenient lower body cutout makes it easy to play at the higher positions of the fingerboard.

Sound reinforcement options include the company’s TW Premium Plus preamp with four-band EQ, Phase function and integrated tuner. The strings are held in Grover’s chrome die-cast chassis and composite headstock via NuBone zero and saddle frets. The nice workmanship is accentuated by the double-sided bright body binding and the Barossa Red Gloss body finish.
