TANGLEWOOD Metropolitan TM4CE Super Folk Cutaway Acoustic Electric
The Tanglewood Metropolitan TM4CE is a compact Super Folk cutaway acoustic-electric built for players who want a comfortable body shape, balanced tone and dependable stage-ready electronics. Its spruce and koa construction gives it a bright, articulate voice with enough warmth through the midrange to suit both fingerstyle and strumming.
With its slim Super Folk body, Venetian cutaway and onboard Tanglewood TEQ-G3 system, the TM4CE is an easy guitar to live with whether you're practising at home, recording or plugging straight into a PA for a gig.
Comfortable Super Folk Cutaway
The Super Folk body shape is one of Tanglewood's most player-friendly designs, offering a more compact feel than a full-size dreadnought while still delivering a balanced acoustic response. The cutaway also gives you easier access to the upper frets for lead lines and more adventurous chord voicings.
Spruce & Koa Construction
The TM4CE uses an HPL spruce top with koa back and sides. This combination delivers a clear attack, good note separation and a warm, smooth midrange, while the HPL construction adds useful stability for changing temperatures and humidity.
Ebony Fingerboard
An ebony fingerboard gives the guitar a smooth, solid playing feel and helps keep note definition crisp. It also adds a premium touch to a guitar designed to stay practical and road-friendly.
Tanglewood TEQ-G3 Electronics
The onboard TEQ-G3 preamp makes the TM4CE ready for rehearsals, live performance and direct recording. It is designed to capture the natural acoustic character clearly while giving you straightforward tone control on stage.
Natural Satin Finish
The natural satin finish keeps the guitar feeling smooth and understated while showing off the koa grain. It is a good match for players who prefer a more natural feel over a high-gloss body.
