The Tanglewood Sundance Classic range is a distinguished collection that exemplifies the brand’s dedication to high-quality craftsmanship and superior sound. This series features two classic Tanglewood body shapes: the Super Folk Cutaway and the Parlour, each designed to cater to a variety of playing styles.
When it comes to projection, the Super Folk Cutaway excels, providing a powerful and clear sound that is ideal for solo performances and group settings. The cutaway design allows easy access to higher frets, enabling musicians to explore a wider range of musical expressions without compromising sound quality.
The Parlour model, while smaller in size, offers a distinctively intimate sound characterised by clarity and detail. This makes it an excellent choice for fingerpicking styles and solo playing, where the nuances of each note can be fully appreciated.
The guitars are crafted with Solid A Grade Cedar tops, renowned for their warm, rich tone and responsiveness, paired with Solid Mahogany backs and mahogany sides that contribute to a balanced and resonant sound.
Each model in the Sundance Classic range boasts exquisite details, including genuine abalone rosettes that enhance their visual allure. The Nubone nut and saddles not only provide durability but also improve sustain and clarity, ensuring that every note rings true. Adding to the instruments’ reliability, the guitars are equipped with chrome machine heads and hardware, which provide precise tuning stability and enhance overall playability.
The integration of LR Baggs Bronze EQ systems further enhances the sound quality, allowing for accurate amplification and tonal shaping when plugged in. This makes the Sundance Classic range suitable for both studio recordings and live performances, ensuring that the natural qualities of the wood and craftsmanship are preserved. To further elevate the playing experience, the guitars are fitted with Elixir Nanoweb strings, known for their smooth feel and long-lasting tone.
Whether you are drawn to the Super Folk Cutaway’s versatility and projection or the Parlour’s intimate sound, this collection offers musicians a refined combination of aesthetic elegance and sonic excellence, making them perfect for both practice and performance.
