Description
The Tanglewood Elemental Super Folk Electro Acoustic in Black is a versatile, comfortable guitar for new and developing players who want an instrument that is ready for lessons, home practice and the occasional open mic. Its Super Folk body delivers a balanced voice with enough presence for strumming while remaining focused and articulate for fingerstyle. A soft cutaway gives easy access to higher frets, and the onboard electronics let you plug straight into an amp or PA without fuss. Finished in a sleek black, it looks as smart on stage as it feels on the lap, making it a confident choice for budding songwriters and performers alike.
Compared with a basic entry level student guitar, this Elemental model offers a more refined playing experience. The compact Super Folk shape sits close to the body for better control, and the neck profile encourages relaxed hand position with a smooth, consistent feel up the fingerboard. A carefully braced laminated top pairs with sturdy back and sides for a lively, reliable tone that stands up to everyday use. Neat fretwork and a sensible factory setup help chords ring clearly and keep intonation in check, while the cutaway and tidy upper fret access support progression as your repertoire grows.
For UK tuition and school use, it is a practical, low maintenance choice. The stable laminated construction handles changes in classroom temperature more predictably, and the built in tuner makes quick tune ups between pieces effortless for students and teachers. The body size suits teenagers and adults, offering comfort during longer practice sessions without sacrificing projection. Plug in capability simplifies ensemble work, recordings for coursework and small performances, so you can move from practice room to stage with minimal extra gear. It represents strong value, providing the features you will need over several grades without demanding an immediate upgrade.
