TANGLEWOOD Crossroads TC3-E Orchestra Acoustic Electric
The Tanglewood Crossroads TC3-E is an Orchestra/Folk-sized acoustic-electric with a warm mahogany voice, comfortable body shape and simple onboard electronics. It is a practical choice for players who want something smaller and easier to handle than a dreadnought without losing too much body or projection.
With mahogany used for the top, back and sides, the TC3-E has a naturally warm, woody response that suits strumming, fingerstyle and singer-songwriter work particularly well.
Warm All-Mahogany Voice
The mahogany top, back and sides give the TC3-E a focused midrange, smooth top end and a slightly softer attack than a spruce-top guitar. It is a tone that works well for vocals, recording and relaxed acoustic playing where you want warmth over brightness.
Comfortable Orchestra / Folk Body
The Orchestra/Folk body keeps the guitar comfortable against the body and gives it a balanced response across the strings. It is a good fit for players who find larger acoustics bulky or who want a more controlled sound for fingerstyle and accompaniment.
Tanglewood TEQ-MX Electronics
The onboard TEQ-MX EQ system makes the TC3-E ready for acoustic amps, PA systems and direct recording. It keeps the setup straightforward while giving you practical control when plugging in for rehearsals or gigs.
Whiskey Burst Satin Finish
The Whiskey Burst Satin finish gives the Crossroads series its distinctive vintage-inspired look while keeping the neck and body feeling smooth and natural in the hands.
