Tanglewood Java TJ8E Parlour Electro-Acoustic Guitar – Natural Gloss
The Tanglewood Java TJ8E is a striking electro-acoustic guitar that blends vintage charm with modern versatility. With its parlour body shape, premium tonewoods, and Fishman Presys electronics, it’s designed for players who value both style and substance.
The compact parlour design offers a comfortable playing experience, perfect for long practice sessions, intimate performances, and fingerstyle techniques. Its warm, balanced acoustic voice makes it ideal for solo playing as well as ensemble work.
At the heart of the TJ8E is a solid spruce top, chosen for its clarity, resonance, and dynamic response. This ensures every note is articulate, whether strummed or delicately picked. The guitar’s stunning three-piece back, crafted from Amara and Spalt Mango, makes it visually unique while adding tonal depth and richness. With Amara sides, the TJ8E delivers a balanced and expressive acoustic character across the frequency range.
Equipped with the Fishman Presys EQ system, this guitar is stage-ready. The onboard EQ, phase control, and built-in tuner give you complete control over your amplified tone, ensuring your sound remains natural and clear in any performance setting.
