- HPL spruce top The Tanglewood TM3 is built with a high pressure laminate (HPL) spruce top a wood loved by players for its bright articulate tone and dynamic response. Spruce has a natural clarity that lets every note ring out with definition whether you&rsquo
- re strumming full chords or picking delicate melodies. Koa back and sides With its striking grain patterns and warm tonal character koa gives this guitar both a unique look and a distinctive sound. The koa back and sides bring a focused midrange and a natural sweetness that pairs perfectly with the brightness of the spruce top. This balance creates a versatile tonal palette that works well across many playing styles from folk and blues through to pop and acoustic rock. Add in the natural satin finish and you&rsquo

- s smooth and comfortable in the hands. Comfortable orchestra body The orchestra body shape is designed for balance both in tone and in feel. Its proportions make it comfortable to hold offering a size that sits neatly against the player without sacrificing projection. The TM3 produces a sound that&rsquo
- s rich and full without being overpowering making it an excellent choice for singer-songwriters and players who want an instrument that complements their voice. It&rsquo
- s the kind of guitar that feels right at home on stage in the studio or on the sofa providing consistent performance wherever you play.
