Tanglewood's new Winterleaf Black Shadow Super Folk cutaway has to be one of the most contemporary models they produce.

Tanglewood have married a Solid African Mahogany top to a select African Mahogany back and sides and think they've created something very special.

The sound of this instrument is warm, rich and high in Bass tones, a part of the register that many instruments lose when the body size is smaller.

The mahogany top makes such a difference and it’s voicing is perfect for straight acoustic playing or plugged in studio/live use.

Tanglewood put Grover machines, Tusq saddles, Elixir strings and Premium Plus EQ systems onto each guitar to maximise its professional features and hope give class leading value for money.

To complete the job, Tanglewood created the transparent smoky black gloss finish to wash over the rich mahogany and give a striking, visual appeal that will satisfy all contemporary players.

Does the type of wood an acoustic guitar is made from make a difference to how it sounds?

It certainly does! The type of wood used in the construction of an acoustic guitar can give it unique tonal qualities. For instance, mahogany gives a very deep, warm character to an acoustic guitar's sound. Maple tends to give a much brighter tone in comparison, whereas cedar wood and spruce have a nicely balanced timbre.

What is guitar 'action'?

This is not the sort of 'action' that you get from the audience after the show when you're lead guitarist in an '80s rock band. It's much more exciting than that! Guitar 'action' describes the distance between the strings and the frets on a guitar. A lower action makes pressing down the string onto the frets a whole lot easier, but if it's too low your strings can buzz, rattle and lose their sustain (not "ring out"). If you have a high action, the strings are harder to press down but you get a much purer tone. Because nearly all guitars can be adjusted, you can usually find a happy medium between comfort and tone. If you need someone to fix the action on your guitar, just ask one of the Kenny's Music team.

Does it matter what the fingerboard on a guitar is made from?

Apart from making a big difference to how the guitar looks, different types of wood can feel and sound quite different when you're playing on them, and their differing feels can subtly affect the way you play.

Rosewood: Soft-feeling and warm-sounding, rosewood fretboards are popular for good reason.

Maple: Offering a brighter tone with more high end, Maple fretboards also wear over time which can be attractive if you want your axe to look lived-in.

Ebony: similar to maple in tone and sturdier than rosewood, ebony fretboards offer a darker-looking neck with a brighter tone.

Does it matter what country a guitar is made in?

Despite what nationalists might tell you, there's not really any simple answer. Even though many companies design their guitars in the USA or Europe, the vast majority of instruments are actually manufactured in China, Mexico, Indonesia, Japan and Korea. There aren't any 'rules' as to what country makes good or bad guitars, but rather which brands have tighter quality control.
