Tanglewood TWCRDCE Crossroads Dreadnought w/ Pickup

Tanglewood TWCRDCE Crossroads Dreadnought w/ Pickup

The Tanglewood TWCRDCE Crossroads Dreadnought with Pickup embodies a return to the traditional values of guitar craftsmanship. Tanglewood embarked on a quest to create an instrument that pays homage to these values, enlisting the expertise of the renowned luthier, Michael Sanden. Michael, the mastermind behind Tanglewood Masterdesign and the Sanden Guitar company in Sweden, now serves as the chief design consultant for Tanglewood Guitars.

Starting with the selection of the finest timbers that harmonize together, Michael crafted the soundboards with precise measurements, ensuring they respond gracefully to the player's touch. His unique bracing patterns infuse each instrument with its own distinct personality. However, the Crossroads guitar is more than the sum of its parts; it's a true labor of love.

With the Crossroads, Michael aimed to create something truly exceptional. He wanted a guitar that would resonate with the hearts of both professional and amateur musicians. The design goes beyond just special bracing and wood selection; it encapsulates the essence of the 1930s, with a rich tobacco burst stain that imparts a historic and elegantly authentic look to the Crossroads guitars. Michael was insistent that the neck profiles, bridge contouring, and fret inlaying should reflect excellence without being compromised by manufacturing costs. This unwavering commitment to quality and performance echoes the Tanglewood ethos of providing outstanding value.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we like the Tanglewood Crossroads for its dedication to quality at an affordable price.
