Building on the global success of Tanglewood's Crossroads range of instruments, their 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.
Each model is bound 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 Tanglewood's design team wished to capture, and to our mind, they have done a wonderful job.
Also featuring the outstanding new Tanglewood Premium Plus Eq system as standard equipment.
The rich smoky charcoal stained finish that's been christened “Smokestack Black“ is used across the Blackbird range. Outstanding quality and tone at this price - superb instruments!
