Tanglewood's Super Folk Body
The Winterleaf Electro Acoustic features one of Tanglewood's most iconic body shapes, the Super Folk. The shape was first introduced over 25 years ago on their award winning TW45 Sundance Pro guitar. The super folk cutaway body has become a must have among folk players because it's a bigger version of traditional folk guitars, offering more volume and tone, in a comfortable shape. The cutaway design enables players to reach more challenging chords with ease.
Koa Body Tone
The Tanglewood Winterleaf’s body is crafted from stunning koa, finished in an eye-catching vintage sunburst to create a truly captivating instrument. The koa tonewood projects a well-balanced tone with a tendency to start out bright, however the more you play, the warmer its tone will get. The koa body also produces a focused mid-range, and becomes richer, sweeter, and more resonant with each strum.
Mahogany Neck & Tech Wood Fingerboard
The mahogany neck is topped with a tech wood fingerboard, delivers warm, balanced tones that really shines through when using finger picking techniques. The reason why many guitar necks are made from mahogany is because the wood responds greatly to picking, strumming, and various finger techniques with equal ease. The mahogany projects distinct rich-warmth which complements the pleasing tone of techwood. Tanglewood's tech wood fingerboard is a poplar based wood laminate, which delivers a beautifully balanced soundscape with an incredibly durable performance.
B-Band M-450T Preamp
To add to its already incredible sound, the Tanglewood Winterleaf is also equipped with a B-Band M-450T Preamp to expand its performance capabilities. The preamp features a 3-band EQ with volume and presence controls for excellent adjustments to your tone, along with a built-in tuner to ensure your guitar stays in-tune on the go. The M-450T Preamp also features a HZZLess preamp circuit, which is a special design that not only reduces signal noise but integrates with the B-Band pickups more closely to increase the signal output, resulting in a powerful performance.
