Tanglewood Roadster II O Steel-String Acoustic Guitar
Product no: 9000-0048-6865 Bax Music Warranty: This product comes with a 3-year warranty.

General

For guitarists that prefer the softer curves of a folk guitar, Tanglewood serve up the Roadster II O: a pleasantly affordable steel-string focused on formidable sound with a little less bass. The warm mid-range stems from the mahogany body parts and neck, while the satin finish on the latter offers smooth playing comfort and combines with the slim middle bout to make sure this Roadster II model is easy to play for different types of guitarists. Aside from the humble yet luxurious green abalone soundhole rosette, Tanglewood has kept the looks nice and natural here, completing an excellent acoustic guitar fit for laid back acoustic sessions.
