Product Information

The Blackbird TB5CE guitar delivers commanding presence and refined performance, offering a powerful and inspiring playing experience for musicians of all levels. Featuring a Dreadnought Cutaway body shape, this model is designed to produce bold projection and strong low-end response, while the cutaway ensures smooth and comfortable access to the upper frets for lead work and expressive playing.

Constructed with a high-quality Mahogany top, the TB5CE generates a warm, full-bodied tone with pronounced midrange clarity and crisp, articulate highs. The Mahogany back and sides further enrich the sound, adding depth, sustain, and a natural resonance that suits both strumming and fingerstyle techniques.

Fitted with the Tanglewood Premium Plus EQ system, the TB5CE offers precise tonal control and reliable amplified performance. Whether performing live, recording, or rehearsing, the Premium Plus system allows players to shape their sound with confidence and consistency across a wide range of musical environments.

Finished in an elegant Smokestack Black Satin, the guitar presents a sleek and modern aesthetic. The satin finish enhances playability while subtly showcasing the natural character of the Mahogany, resulting in a striking instrument that looks as impressive as it sounds.

From powerful rhythm work to dynamic melodic passages, the Blackbird TB5CE guitar combines robust tone, comfortable playability, and dependable electronics, making it an excellent choice for players seeking a versatile and performance-ready dreadnought cutaway acoustic.
