Description

The Tanglewood Azure TA4CE is a modern electro acoustic for players who want inspiring looks and reliable performance without fuss. Finished in a striking Shimmer Red, it is a great choice for beginners moving beyond their first guitar, adult learners, and singer songwriters who want a comfortable instrument for both home practice and open mic nights. The slim cutaway body helps keep the guitar easy to hold whether seated or standing, while the onboard electronics make it simple to plug into an amp or PA when you are ready to be heard.

Built with carefully chosen laminated tonewoods for strength and consistency, the TA4CE balances durability with a clear, balanced voice that suits strumming and fingerstyle alike. A smooth satin feeling neck and tidy fretwork encourage confident fretting, while the cutaway grants access to higher notes for melodies and solos. The factory fitted preamp with built in tuner keeps you in tune and gives you instant control of your sound, and stable machine heads help the guitar hold pitch during longer sessions.

For lessons and school ensembles in the UK, the Azure TA4CE ticks the right boxes. It is robust enough for daily practice and travel between home, lesson and rehearsal, and the bright finish stands up well to the bumps of student life. Clear side dots help with quick position changes, and the comfortable action supports good technique as you progress. Plug in for group work or performances, or use the onboard tuner for quiet practice at home. With dependable construction and easy playability, it offers excellent value for learners and advancing players who want a stylish step up that works anywhere you take it.

Features

Stage ready electronics

The TA4CE includes a responsive under saddle pickup and an easy to use onboard preamp with a built in tuner. Simple controls let you shape bass, middle and treble and set your volume, so you can plug straight into an acoustic amp or PA and get a clear, feedback resistant sound for rehearsals and gigs.

Comfortable cutaway body

A slim, cutaway folk sized body keeps the guitar light and manageable for players of all sizes. The cutaway provides access to higher frets for melodies and lead lines, while the body depth strikes a smart balance between playing comfort and a full, balanced acoustic tone.

Easy playing neck

A smooth neck with a comfortable profile and neatly finished frets makes chords and scales feel natural from the first session. The setup is designed to support clean fretting without excessive effort, helping new players progress faster and experienced players enjoy longer practice without fatigue.

Durable Shimmer Red finish

The eye catching Shimmer Red finish looks great on stage and stands up to everyday use. Laminated construction adds stability against changes in temperature and humidity, making the guitar a dependable partner for home practice, school runs and weekend performances.

Reliable hardware

Quality machine heads provide steady, accurate tuning and hold pitch well between sessions. Secure strap buttons, a sturdy bridge and a tidy nut and saddle work together to support consistent intonation and tuning stability, so the guitar performs as it should whenever you pick it up.
