Comfortable auditorium shape
The TM6CE is constructed with an auditorium body shape, a design loved by players who want a balance of projection and comfort. Its slightly slimmer waist and well-proportioned curves sit snugly against the body, making it easy to hold for long sessions. The sound is focused and articulate, with a strong midrange presence that cuts through nicely in a mix. It’s an excellent choice for fingerstyle, light strumming or solo performance where clarity and balance matter as much as volume.
Venetian cutaway access
One of the defining features of the TM6CE is its elegant Venetian cutaway. Adding more than just good looks, the cutaway makes reaching the higher frets smooth and comfortable, opening the door to more adventurous playing. Whether you’re working on melodic runs or exploring chord shapes further up the neck, the design encourages creativity without sacrificing comfort. It adds a touch of sophistication to the guitar’s profile while providing practical benefits for players who want freedom across the entire fretboard.
Spruce and koa tonewoods
A solid spruce top provides the TM6CE with its lively, dynamic voice. Spruce is renowned for its bright, responsive tone that adapts well to different playing styles, and it develops added warmth the more it’s played. This is paired with koa back and sides, delivering warmth, balance and a sweet midrange character that blends beautifully with the clarity of spruce. The result is a tonal palette that is versatile and musical, with projection for live use and subtlety for recording.
Stage-ready electronics
Fitted with the Tanglewood TEQ-G3 EQ system, the TM6CE is ready for any stage or studio setting. The electronics capture the natural acoustic voice of the guitar and reproduce it faithfully through an amplifier or PA. Simple, intuitive controls make it easy to dial in your tone, from crisp brightness to a warmer, rounded sound. Combined with an ebony fingerboard and bridge, chrome die-cast tuners and phosphor bronze strings, this guitar delivers reliability as well as inspiration. It’s a complete package for players who want confidence and performance every time they pick it up.
