Here we have the Tanglewood TWCR SFC Limited Edition Superfolk Crossroads Whiskey Barrel Burst Acoustic Guitar in mint condition. What a mouthful!
So let’s translate the jargon of the model number: TWCR SFC
TW = Tanglewood
CR = Crossroads
SF = Super folk (refers to the slightly smaller ‘folk’ body shape)
C = Cutaway (the body isn’t a symmetrical “8” shape but has a section cut away to allow access to the upper frets)
The Tanglewood Crossroads range are vintage styled American ‘Depression Era’ guitars. This one has a slightly smaller ‘folk’ sized body for those looking for a less bulky guitar design. A Dreadnought would suit those looking for a larger body, this folk sized guitar offers a comfortable smaller body, with a slightly narrower frequency response. Don’t worry…it still has a bright and full tone though!
A smaller body is not necessarily a negative thing as it depends on your playing style, whether you use fingers or a plectrum and your own physical size.
The Crossroads series pays homage to the style and sound of classic instruments from 1930’s America. The TWCR SFC is a small bodied, Super-Folk size electro cutaway in a classic Whiskey Barrel Burst finish.
