Inspired by nature and the raw beauty of classic timber, Roadster II instruments make a truly organic and understated natural statement. We’ve long pioneered the practice of sustainable forestry in the pursuit of our art and for this latest Roadster series Tanglewood match finely graded Canadian Red Cedar tops with traditional Indonesian mahogany back and sides to produce tonally rich instruments that sound instantly wonderful tuned up right out of the box. Tanglewood call them Roadster because their cosmetic appeal evokes a sense of being close to nature… just as driving a classic open-top car with the wind in your hair!
Tanglewoods luthiers have to work especially hard in creating this look, finishing the smooth edging joins of the body very carefully because there is no binding added to the body of these models, therefore no margin for error. Roadster II Cedar tops are finished and sealed in high grade, low-density satin lacquer, and as well as capturing the stripped down raw timber cosmetic effect they envisaged on the drawing board, Tanglewood is sure this also adds to their sweet sounding sonic appeal.
The Tanglewood TWR2 sports a beautiful Cedar top and Mahogany back and sides providing a well-balanced tone leaning a little towards crisp, but over time will settle to a mellower warmer tone. The Eboncore fingerboard is both responsive and environmentally friendly and accompanies the tonewood with a tight crisp response.
The Tanglewood TWR2 Roadster II is probably at the higher end of a beginner guitar budget or a natural evolution of a more experienced player looking for an upgrade on their beginner guitar. The classic folk body lends itself to a greater projection of sound.
