Description

The LAG TN170ASCE Tramontane N170 Electro-Classical Guitar is a testament to what happens when the comfort of a slim-bodied steel-string meets the lush tones of nylon strings. Crafted for both acoustic and electric guitar enthusiasts, this instrument beckons those eager to meld contemporary feel with classical sound.

Situated in Glasgow’s musical heart, Merchant City Music stands proud to showcase this exceptional piece. Our promise? Every guitar we offer undergoes meticulous scrutiny and professional setup, ensuring your instrument resonates perfection right from the first strum.

One of the defining characteristics of the LAG Tramontane N170 is its Solid Red Cedar soundboard. Darker in shade than its Spruce counterpart, Cedar is renowned for imparting a warm, mellow tone. Especially in a slim-bodied design like the N170, this choice of wood accentuates mid and lower registers that might otherwise get overshadowed. Plus, with time, the solid wood matures, enhancing its tonal richness with each passing note.

LAG’s commitment to aesthetics and quality shines bright in the guitar’s oval rosette and gracefully designed headstock. Beyond its stunning looks, the N170 boasts cutting-edge technology. Equipped with the Fishman CLASICA II pickup system, this guitar is fine-tuned to capture and amplify the nuanced sound of nylon strings. From an integrated chromatic tuner and discreet control knobs to a phase button and dual-band EQ, the N170 is ever-prepared to grace any stage.

The guitar’s body is adorned with a natural satin open pore finish, and its silhouette is further defined by satin black hardware. The combination of Solid Red Cedar and Khaya woods promises not just visual appeal but also tonal depth. The smooth playing experience is enhanced with a Brown Brankowood fretboard and bridge, while features like the double-action truss rod, classic tuning pegs with a 1:15 ratio, and medium silver nickel frets ensure longevity and playability.

With dimensions measuring 1060 x 485 x 110 mm and a weight of 2.85 kg, the LAG TN170ASCE Tramontane N170 ensures comfort and manageability for players of varied statures. It stands as a timeless testament to impeccable craftsmanship and unparalleled sound. Discover its musical allure, now available at Merchant City Music.
