I finally bought a new folk guitar and I must admit it's a perfect deal for what it worth.

So, let me explain why I would recommand this guitar to other guitar players :

  • first, it is still a cheap model (around 500 € in France) for an electro-accoustic guitar
  • it has a solid top, back and sides (means it sound should become greater with time)
  • its accoustic sound is rightly balanced
  • its electric sound really reflects its accoustic sound (so, balanced as well, which is not the case of lots of guitars of this price range I tried)
  • its EQ (B-Band) is efficent (when you push mediums, you really hear it)
  • the model I bought was rightly tuned and it's really painfull to move on the neck

Before choosing this one I tried other models, even from well-known brands from the same price range (including Cort, Art & Lutherie, Yamaha, Simon & Patrick, Ibanez) and no other one seemed as well balanced. I did not know about Tanglewood before buying this one but I would definitely recommand to give a try to its models to any guitarist interested in an electro-accoustic.

I didn't know you could play guitar :o

So are you good at it? Do you write your own songs or do you play popular songs?

I have bought a synthesizer (as a impulse buy) and I haven't really played with it - - I have had the damn thing for around 2 years. Sigh.

I play both my own songs (mostrly blues licks) and popular ones but I still need to train a lot :)

I think I'll post some tunes when they'll be ready (i.e. ti be used as phone rings, I'm not yet able to write symphonies ;) )
