Building on the global success of Tanglewoods Crossroads range of instruments, the design team have created a whole new range of guitars, inspired by the cosmetic of 1940/50’s era US instruments with the class-leading constructional signature of Michael Sanden and the Tanglewood artisanal team. Every Blackbird model is carefully braced to provide a tight bottom end bass note and clear rich high spectrum resonance. We have bound each model in vintage ivory ABS materials to provide the look of Bakelite from the ’40s, and though this won’t affect the sound, it certainly helps give provenance to the historic look Tanglewoods' design team wished to capture.
Tanglewood has both traditional acoustic models and stage-ready electro-acoustic versions available, all featuring the outstanding new Tanglewood Premium Plus Eq system as standard equipment. The rich smoky charcoal stained finish they have christened “Smokestack Black“!
Tanglewoods Blackbird Folk Acoustic has an exquisite hand-selected Mahogany top with Mahogany back and sides provide an extremely warm folksy tone which will settle and mellow over time. The Tanglewood TWBBOE is fitted with Tanglwoods premium electronics to allow the player to go further sonically at an amazing price. This is an ideal guitar for the beginner or intermediate guitar player looking for a solid long-lasting acoustic.
