Carefully designed to offer an authentic tone and character by master luthier Michael Sanden, the Tanglewood Sundance Historic range of acoustic guitars aims to meet the market demand for simple, understated, 1940s-style solid-top guitars.

Designed in the UK, under the stewardship of Swedish master luthier Michael Sanden, these instruments evoke plenty of traditional style. Each guitar has a solid spruce top and mahogany back and sides, a laurel fingerboard, multiple celluloid binding, a reinforcing neck volute, a genuine bone nut and saddle, and Waverly-style open gear tuners. Additional features include Tanglewood’s new parallel bridge pin system, and a soft V neck profile.

The solid Spruce tops are tuned, braced, and aged to produce optimum performance and their understated looks are certainly deceiving, the minute you strum a chord and hear how great they sound you’ll find a Historic guitar very difficult to put back down.
