Building on the global success of our
Crossroads range of instruments, our 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 40’s,
and though this won’t affect the sound, it certainly helps give
provenance to the historic look our design team wished to capture,
and to our mind, they have done a wonderful job.
We have 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
we have christened “Smokestack Black“ and we hope, amongst the
range you will be able to choose your own favourite!
